I recently had a mole removed and now I am fighting infection.  So a Dr. gave me the Z - Pack(arithzimiacin) (sp)   I think it might be conflicting with the Neurontin I am on.  I am curious if it should.  Didn't think they would give it, if it would.  I am using the same pharmacy for all my meds.  I am getting very dizzy and weird dreams, grumpy, feel like I am drunk..LOL!  If you know anything please let me know.  I am suposed to take this for 5 days, but I know it stays in my sys. for 14 days.

Hi KrazyKat - Check out the URL below for page that describes drugs that interact with azithromycin. I couldn't find neurontin on there.

It seems most likely that you're reacting to the azithromycin itself. Among the long list of side effects it can cause are dizziness, vertigo and somnolence (slow, loopy feeling). Hopefully you'll adjust to the medication soon. In any case the best thing to do is to call up your pharmacist or doctor and tell  them what's going on.

 

Good luck!
