Anyone been on this? I've been prescribed 500mg 2x per day and I feel disgusting! Sick, nausea, weird taste...I've only taken one and I'm on them for a week. Doctor told me they were better tolerated than erythromycin which gave me a bad stomach before. Is this true? Help!

I threw up with every tablet I took and felt horrendous the whole time. Never had erythromycin so can't comment on that.

Sorry, not helpful!

I took it years ago for whooping cough and it made me feel iller than the bloody cough. Depends on why you need it and whether there are alternatives but it probably won't wear off until you stop taking it.

This is what I get every time I have a chest infection. Horses bullets I call them. Taste disgusting but they work.

Yep! Cant take it. I reacted really badly and ended up in hospital Confused

Thanks all. Have asked doc for a call back since I have now projectile vomited. No different from erythromycin so far!
