My 10 month old son was bit by a carpenter ants. He has been sick for months now he s 1year and 2months and finally a doctor treated him with azithromycin. He s going to be seen in infectious disease to find out what s going on. I believe he s had a staff infection and passed it to me and my boyfriend. Does azothromycin clear up a staph infection or such as epidemic impetigo?
Yes Azithromycin has shown to be effective in an infection by Staphylococci. But if there is some resistant variant of staph then a sensitivity test has to be done. This would help in identifying the antibiotic that is most effective against the strain of Staph that you have. Thank you for your query
