Abstract:
:This article is an extensive review of current information available on the macrolide antibiotics. This includes antimicrobial spectrum, pharmacology, complications and side effects, and pediatric use of these drugs. These are important antibiotics, but careful selection of patients must be made and the physician must be alert for evidence of drug-drug interactions, which are not uncommon with several members of this class.
