The new macrolides Azithromycin and clarithromycin Kanatani MS; Guglielmo BJWest J Med 1994[Jan]; 160 (1): 31-7Clarithromycin and azithromycin are among the new generation of macrolides that have recently been approved for use. Compared with currently available antibiotics, these agents may be given less frequently and, in the case of azithromycin, for a shorter duration. In vitro data suggest an antimicrobial advantage of both clarithromycin and azithromycin against atypical mycobacterial and toxoplasmal species and possibly Haemophilus influenzae. The cost of both these agents is substantially higher than that of erythromycin and doxycycline, although the convenience of single-dose azithromycin is appealing compared with a 7-day course of doxycycline for chlamydial urethritis and cervicitis. These agents appear to offer advantages over erythromycin in the treatment of Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare. Additional data are needed to establish their role in other bacterial infections.|*Azithromycin/adverse effects/pharmacology/therapeutic use[MESH]|*Clarithromycin/adverse effects/pharmacology/therapeutic use[MESH]|Humans[MESH] |
