NCT ID NCT05961189
First seen May 22, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether taking a common antibiotic (azithromycin) for 5 days changes how well healthy young adults can exercise. Researchers measured treadmill performance and gut bacteria before and after the antibiotic or a placebo. The goal was to learn more about how gut health might affect fitness, not to treat any disease.
