On Z-pack... Should I take both Day 1 pills at the same time?

Question

So the doctor gave me a Z-pack for bronchitis. (Yuck.) I've had it before, but I can't remember if I'm supposed to take the two Day 1 pills at the same time or one now and one later?

Answer 1

yes, it's ment to quickly get to work

Answer 2

Absolutely!

The double dose is to load it in your system to get you feeling better in no time! :)

Get well soon!

Answer 3

When used for treating pneumonia, both should be taken at the same time. In general, the antibiotic of choice for bronchitis, though, is nothing; so it's likely you've been given an inappropriate prescription, in which case there is no correct answer.
