Some docs prescribe antibiotics on a daily or every other day basis for patients who have regular exacerbations to reduce the number of exacerbations every year. Azithromycin is often prescribed daily or every other day. Roflumilast (Daliresp) is another med often prescribed for exactly the same thing.
