I gave my son azithromycin twice a day instead of once, what should I do?

Question

Hi, my boy was on amoxil for 7 days and his ear infection didn't go away so we are on azithromycin since Saturday morning. I was used to 2 times a day... so I gave it twice a day and I realized that I was going to miss it. So I saw that it was once a day...

Good morning, ma'am, Given the situation, notably a second antibiotic treatment, taking it twice a day instead of once, the need to evaluate the effect on your child and to re-evaluate his or her treatment, your question should be redirected to your pharmacist, who will be able to help you take charge of the situation, advise the prescriber of the steps to be taken and ensure a close follow-up with your child. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
