Therapeutic Note
Antibiotics, Erythromycins (08:12:12): Erythromycin alone is not adequate for the treatment of H. influenzae infections. It lacks consistently reliable activity against this organism. Erythromycin is a potent inhibitor of hepatic oxidation of some drugs and may cause significant elevation of blood levels of astemizole, carbamazepine, cyclosporine, digoxin, dihydropyridines, terfenadine, theophylline and warfarin. Potentially fatal arrhythmias (torsade de pointes) can occur with the combination of erythromycin and astemizole or terfenadine. Azithromycin 200 mg/5 mL Oral Liquid 37.5-mL Pack: Zithromax 200mg/5mL oral solution is not commercially available in the 37.5mL pack size and it is only shown in this interchangeable category to facilitate the interchangeability designation with Auro-Azithromycin 200mg/5mL - 37.5mL pack.
