Can I Switch From Azithromycin To Amoxicillan

I was given 500 mg of azithromycin at the hospital and the next day when I went to have my script filled it was too expensive. Can I switch to amoxicillan 500 mg?

You can do so, as long as your doctor some approves, some medications have gone very high in price, this year.

The FDA lists the typical antibiotic side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

Are you on any other medications?
