Whooping Cough Outbreaks Mean Z-Pak Side Effects
By John Curran
Whooping cough, or pertussis, should have been much less common than it now is. Unfortunately, some parents decided to avoid vaccinations due to now-refuted scientific studies and it forces people to consider dealing with Zithromax heart attack side effects. At least two states are currently trying to quell whooping cough outbreaks.
The prescription antibiotic is one of the most commonly used to treat the disease, and is being suggested by doctors in both Washington and Kentucky. People have to take the medication even if they don’t have the disease in some cases. Doctors will ignore Z-Pak side effects and prescribe it to parents to prevent the disease spreading to an unvaccinated infant, for example.
It’s unfortunate that adherence to faulty science led, in part, to this problem. Expectant mothers could have limited any problems with pertussis by making sure vaccine boosters were up to date. However, doctors note that there is no guaranteed immunity, although it still makes little sense that they ignore Zithromax heart attack side effects. It’s commonly used because of its popularity, but there are several other drugs that don’t lead to Z-Pak Stevens-Johnson Syndrome conditions.
What would help is for people to take advantage of other medical options so that no one has to deal with Z-Pak side effects. Keeping up to date with one’s booster shots and getting children properly vaccinated is a start. So, too, is making sure that if your doctor diagnoses you with a viral infection, that you don’t ask for and don’t accept a prescription for antibiotics. In both of these cases, it’s easy to limit the risk of Z-Pak Stevens-Johnson Syndrome risks without putting people at risk for other diseases.
