A-Mycin (Erythromycin) is a macrolide antibiotic that works by either inhibiting bacterial growth (bacteriostatic) or killing bacteria (bactericidal), depending on concentration. It interferes with bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, blocking translocation.
Target Organisms Include:
- Gram-positive bacteria: Cocci and bacilli
- Gram-negative bacteria: Neisseria catarrhalis, N. meningitidis, N. gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus influenzae, Bordetella pertussis
- Others: Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, various Bacteroides species, Fusobacterium, Chlamydia trachomatis, and Treponema pallidum.

✔️ Pharmacology
- Inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosome subunit.
- Acid-sensitive; delivered as stable esters like erythromycin stearate, which are absorbed after hydrolysis.
- Achieved 1–4 hours post-500 mg oral dose.
- Typically 1.2–4 hours; extends to ~5 hours in renal impairment.
- Widely distributed in body fluids and tissues, including liver, spleen, CSF (if meninges are inflamed), placenta, and breast milk.
- Primarily excreted in bile; 5–15% excreted unchanged in urine.
✔️ Dosage & Administration
- Adults & Children >8 years: 250–500 mg every 6 hours (up to 4 g/day in severe cases).
- Elderly: No special dose adjustment required.
- Children (2–8 years): 250 mg every 6 hours or 30–50 mg/kg/day in 4 divided doses.
- Infants & Children (<2 years): 500 mg daily in divided doses or 30–50 mg/kg/day.
✔️ Drug Interactions
May increase serum theophylline levels when taken concurrently, potentially leading to toxicity. Theophylline dosage may need adjustment.
✔️ Contraindications
Hypersensitivity or known allergy to erythromycin.
✔️ Side Effects
- Mild gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, or vomiting may occur initially.
- Rare allergic reactions have been reported, including rare cases of anaphylaxis.
