For the curious, this checks out. Ethanol interacts on CYP2E1 (both substrate and inducer) and Azithromycin or Zithromax interacts on CYP3A4,5,7 (substrate and inhibitor).
It would appear, therefore, that the occasional guidance you see about not mixing the two is based on the remote possibility that Zithromax may cause temporary elevated liver enzymes (its half life is 68 hours) and drinking while you have chronic liver disease while on Zithromax could elevate enzymes further and delay resolution. So, bottom line, if you are an alcoholic or have hepatitis, Zithromax and alcohol MIGHT be a bad mix, but if you don't have liver problems anyway, it would appear the biochemist's advice is correct.
I'm a Paramedic, full disclosure, not a doctor.
