I've been taking a prescription medication, Azithromycin, prescribed by a doctor for a cough. The medication has been causing severe side effects such as painful earache, headache, fever-like symptoms, diarrhea, black bloody stools, stomach pain, headaches, and feeling really tired. Additionally, my throat gets really swollen and it's hard to swallow. What should I do about these side effects?

I am a 34-year-old male with lactose intolerance and stomach gas problems. I switched to A2 milk, which helped with lactose issues but not bloating and gas.
