T Post by: BreakFree on Feb 8, 2015 A pregnant client has been prescribed azithromycin (Zithromax) for an upper respiratory infection. The client asks the nurse why this medication was prescribed instead of erythromycin. The nurse explains that azithromycin:
1. causes less nausea. 2. may be taken with or without food. 3. is safe to take during pregnancy. 4. does not cause diarrhea or abdominal pain. 5. is not associated with hypersensitivity.
