Response from Dr. Frascino
Hi, Check the archives. I've answered similar questions many, many times before. Briefly, antibiotics, including Zithromax, do not affect the body's ability to make anti-HIV antibodies, the duration of the window period or HIV test results. Consequently, your negative 16-week test is indeed WOO-HOO-able! Congrats! Stay well. Dr. Bob | |||||||||
