In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to learn whether adding extra doses of azithromycin to the standard antibiotic treatment for preterm prelabor rupture of membranes may improve pregnancy outcomes for patients between 22 weeks and 28 weeks gestational age. Researchers will compare the standard antibiotic treatment to the standard antibiotic treatment with additional doses of azithromycin. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to one of two groups: * The standard antibiotic treatment * The standard antibiotic treatment plus 7 additional doses of oral azithromycin 500 mg every other day. * Participants will be asked to complete a survey regarding their experience and side effects.
