    As far as I know, Z-Pak is the brand name for azithromycin, so redness and rash could be due to some minor reaction to the antibiotic. Nevertheless, I think if that was the case, you would see pronounced bumps on the skin.

    You could try going back to the doctor who prescribed you the treatment just to make sure everything is okay, but I don't even think it is necessary.
