Sir: Several publications report psychiatric symptoms induced by macrolide antibiotics. Clarithromycin and erythromycin used in combination with other treatments, or even in monotherapy, have been reported to produce acute psychoses, manic episodes, and depression. To our knowledge, this is the first report of an association between azithromycin, another macrolide antibiotic, and the initiation...
BACKGROUND Resistance to antibiotics is a major public-health problem, and studies that link antibiotic use and resistance have shown an association but not a causal effect. We used the macrolides azithromycin and clarithromycin to investigate the direct effect of antibiotic exposure on resistance in the oral streptococcal flora of healthy volunteers. METHODS Volunteers were treated with azit...
Ketolides, which represent the newest macrolide antibiotics, are generally perceived to be noninducers of inducible erm genes. In the study described in this paper we investigated the effects of several macrolide and ketolide compounds on the expression of the inducible erm(C) gene by Escherichia coli cells. Exposure to 14-member-ring macrolide drugs and to azithromycin led to a rapid and prono...
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterised by progressive development of airflow limitation that is poorly reversible. Because of a poor understanding of COPD pathogenesis, treatment is mostly symptomatic and new therapeutic strategies are limited. There is a direct relationship between the severity of the disease and the intensity of the inflammatory response. Bes...

Macrolides, one of the most commonly used class of antibiotics, are a group of drugs produced by Streptomyces species. They belong to the polyketide class of natural products. Their activity is due to the presence of a large macrolide lactone ring with deoxy sugar moieties. They are protein synthesis inhibitors and broad-spectrum antibiotics, active against both gram-positive and gram-negative ...
Macrolides, a class of antimicrobials isolated from Streptomycetes more than 50 years ago, are used extensively to treat sinopulmonary infections in humans. In addition, a growing body of experimental and clinical evidence indicates that long-term (years), low (sub-antimicrobial)-dose 14- and 15-membered ring macrolide antibiotics, such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, roxithromycin and azithro...
The first synthesis of siderophore conjugates of two macrolide antibiotics, spiramycin 1 and neospiramycin 2, which are unable to penetrate the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria are described. These novel conjugates were prepared by regioselective acylation of a hydroxyl function of 1 and 2 with a dihydroxybenzoic Fe(III) complexing ligand linked via a carboxyl group containing spacer to...
The in vitro activities of the macrolide antibiotics clarithromycin, 14-hydroxy-clarithromycin, azithromycin, and erythromycin against 19 isolates of Borrelia burgdorferi were investigated. MICs ranged from 0.003 to 0.03 microgram of clarithromycin per ml, 0.007 to 0.03 microgram of 14-hydroxyclarithromycin per ml, 0.003 to 0.03 microgram of azithromycin per ml, and 0.007 to 0.06 microgram of e...
Macrolide antibiotics, erythromycin, clarithromycin and azithromycin are commonly prescribed for upper respiratory infection, and their use has recently been further linked to immunomodulatory effects. With the widespread and expanded use of macrolides, special attention should be paid to their potential adverse effects. We reported two cases of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who devel...
