A Z pak is zithromyacin - It is a 6 pill antibiotic pak. You take it for 5 days (2 pills the first day and one pill for the next 4 days). It has a long half life so it lasts 10 days in the body. It is easier to take since you only take it 5 days instead of the usual 10 for most antibiotics. Little kids get it for ear infections and I have used it for sinusitis and my daughter for bronchitis.
Gina suggests it due to theoretical ideas that the Her2 overexpression can be due to bacterial or viral infection that the body cannot get rid of (much to the same thought process that cervical cancer is caused by HPV and stomach ulcers by a certain bacteria (can't remember the name of that one)).
Warm regards
