I really appreciate your reply.

No problem. Unfortunately, physicians aren't always adequately trained in drug use-- thus the role of the pharmacist.
As far as changing drugs, for the future, Zithromax is in the same class as Biaxin, but doesn't seem to have the drug interaction. Just something to keep in mind.
Hope you feel better!
