Interactions between your selected drugs

azithromycin ↔ fluoxetine
Applies to: Azithromycin Dose Pack (azithromycin), fluoxetine
Using azithromycin together with FLUoxetine can increase the risk of an irregular heart rhythm that may be serious. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. You should seek immediate medical attention if you develop sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, or fast or pounding heartbeats during treatment with these medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

My doctor said it is safe but here I read about moderate interactions? What I should do?
