Erythromycin can cause abdominal pain in some people that take it, but it can also cause some more serious problems, such as pancreatitis, so you should check with your doctor so they can figure out what's going on.

Learn more Eryko details here.

And it can actually be taken with, or without food, so if it's causing stomach pain and it turns out to not be a serious problem, taking it with food may help prevent the pain.

Are there any other questions or concerns?
