If you had first taken Amoxicillin then you can add Azithromycin for more specific action towards a bacteria or if needed action towards some Atypical Bacteria. But not recommended to take initially both Antibiotics together.

Amoxicillin is a Broad spectrum Antibiotic while Azithromycin too. Amoxicillin deals G+ve Bacteria like Streptococcus Group A, Strep.Group C, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus diptheria, clostridium perfringens and spirochetes, G-ves like Neisseria species.


while Azithromycin deals with Atypical pneumonia caused by Legionella, Mycoplasma and chlamydial species along with strep.Group A and Group C, diptheria and Bordetulla species.


Amoxicillin efficient for treating G+ve Streps and Azithromycin efficient for treating Atypical pneumonia causing species.

Azithromycin is such a low dose will act as a bacteriostatic drug. So it will stop the division of bacteria. Amoxicillin is bacteriocidal drug and act on rapidly dividing bacteria only. So in this case the amoxicillin will go to waste, means it will have no positive effect as an antibiotic.
