Pharmacology

Indication

呃ythromycin is indicated in the treatment of infections caused by susceptible strains of various bacteria.21The indications for erythromycin have been summarized by body system below:

Respiratory infections

Mild to moderate upper respiratory tract infections caused by Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus pneumoniae, or Haemophilus influenzae (when used concomitantly with appropriate doses of sulfonamides) can be treated with erythromycin.21Mild to moderate lower-respiratory tract infections due to susceptible strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae or Streptococcus pyogenes may also be treated. Erythromycin treats listeriosis caused by Listeria monocytogenes may also be treated with erythromycin.21呃ythromycin is indicated to treat pertussis (whooping cough) caused by Bordetella pertussis. It is effective in eliminating the causative organism from the nasopharynx of infected individuals, rendering them noninfectious. Clinical studies suggest that erythromycin may aid in the prevention of pertussis infection for individuals who have been exposed to the bacteria.21Respiratory tract infections due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae may also be treated with erythromycin.21Despite the fact that no controlled clinical efficacy studies have been conducted to this date, in vitro and certain preliminary clinical study results indicate that erythromycin may be an effective treatment in Legionnaires’ Disease.21Finally, erythromycin is indicated to treat diphtheria and other infections due to Corynebacterium diphtheriae, as an adjunct to antitoxin, to prevent carrier status and to eradicate the organism in existing carriers.21In addition to the prevention of diphtheria, erythromycin can be used to prevent rheumatic fever in penicillin intolerant patients.21

Skin infections

Mild to moderate skin or skin structure infections caused by Streptococcus pyogenes or Staphylococcus aureus may be treated with erythromycin, however, resistant staphylococcal organisms may emerge.21呃ythromycin can also be used to treat erythrasma, an infectious condition caused by Corynebacterium minutissimum.21

Gastrointestinal infections

Intestinal amebiasis caused by Entamoeba histolytica can be treated with oral erythromycin. Extraenteric amebiasis warrants treatment with other antimicrobial drugs.21

Genital infections/STIs

红霉素可以作为替代药物treating acute pelvic inflammatory disease caused by N. gonorrheae in female patients who have demonstrated hypersensitivity or intolerance to penicillin.21Syphilis, caused by Treponema pallidum, can be treated with erythromycin. It serves as an alternative treatment for primary syphilis in patients who have demonstrated penicillin hypersensitivity. Erythromycin can also be used in the primary stage of primary syphilis.21Another approved indication of erythromycin is to treat chlamydial infections that cause conjunctivitis of the newborn, pneumonia of infancy, and urogenital infections occurring in pregnancy. It is indicated as an alternative option to tetracyclines for the treatment of uncomplicated rectal, urethral and endocervical infections in adults caused by Chlamydia trachomatis.21呃ythromycin can be used in nongonococcal urethritis can be used when tetracyclines cannot be administered. Finally, erythromycin is indicated to treat nongonococcal urethritis due to Ureaplasma urealyticum.21

Pharmacodynamics

Macrolides, such as erythromycin, stop bacterial growth by inhibiting protein synthesis and translation, treating bacterial infections.8呃ythromycin does not exert effects on nucleic acid synthesis.21This drug has been shown to be active against most strains of the following microorganisms, effectively treating both in vitro and clinical infections. Despite this, it is important to perform bacterial susceptibility testing before administering this antibiotic, as resistance is a common issue that may affect treatment.21

A note on antimicrobial resistance, pseudomembranous colitis, and hepatotoxicity

Many strains of Haemophilus influenzae are resistant to erythromycin alone but are found to be susceptible to erythromycin and sulfonamides used in combination. It is important to note that Staphylococci that are resistant to erythromycin may emerge during erythromycin and/or sulfonamide therapy.21与莫Pseudomembranous结肠炎报道st antibacterial agents, including erythromycin, and may range in severity from mild to life-threatening. Therefore, the physician should consider this diagnosis in patients with diarrhea after the administration of antibacterial agents.21呃ythromycin can cause hepatic dysfunction, cholestatic jaundice, and abnormal liver transaminases, particularly when erythromycin estolate is administered.22

Mechanism of action

为了复制,需要一个特定的细菌process of protein synthesis, enabled by ribosomal proteins.9呃ythromycin acts by inhibition of protein synthesis by binding to the 23S ribosomal RNA molecule in the 50S subunit of ribosomes in susceptible bacterial organisms. It stops bacterial protein synthesis by inhibiting the transpeptidation/translocation step of protein synthesis and by inhibiting the assembly of the 50S ribosomal subunit.21,10This results in the control of various bacterial infections.13,21The strong affinity of macrolides, including erythromycin, for bacterial ribosomes, supports their broad‐spectrum antibacterial activities.13

Absorption

Orally administered erythromycin is readily absorbed. Food intake does not appear to exert effects on serum concentrations of erythromycin.21Some interindividual variation exists in terms of erythromycin absorption, which may impact absorption to varying degrees.21The Cmax of erythromycin is 1.8 mcg/L15and the Tmax is 1.2 hours.19The serum AUC of erythromycin after the administration of a 500mg oral dose was 7.3±3.9 mg.h/l in one pharmacokinetic study.19呃ythromycin is well known for a bioavailability that is variable (18-45%)6,14after oral administration and its susceptibility to broken down under acidic conditions.5

Volume of distribution

在大多数体液和accu发现红霉素mulates in leucocytes and inflammatory liquid.21,5,19Spinal fluid concentrations of erythromycin are low, however, the diffusion of erythromycin through the blood-brain barrier increases in meningitis, likely due to the presence of inflamed tissues which are easily penetrated.22呃ythromycin crosses the placenta.21

Protein binding

呃ythromycin demonstrates 93% serum protein binding in the erythromycin propionate form.7Another resource indicates that erythromycin protein binding ranges from 80 to 90%.18

Metabolism

Hepatic first-pass metabolism contributes significantly to erythromycin metabolism after an oral dose.11呃ythromycin is partially metabolized by CYP3A4 enzyme to N-desmethylerythromycin.21,8呃ythromycin is also hydrolyzed toanhydroforms (anhydroerythromycin [AHE] and other metabolites), and this process is promoted by acidic conditions.5AHE is inactive against microbes but inhibits hepatic drug oxidation and is therefore considered to be an important contributor to erythromycin drug-drug interactions.5

Route of elimination

In patients with normal liver function, erythromycin concentrates in the liver and is then excreted in the bile.22Under 5% of the orally administered dose of erythromycin is found excreted in the urine.22,19A high percentage of absorbed erythromycin is not accounted for, but is likely metabolized.22

Half-life

The elimination half-life of oral erythromycin was 3.5 hours according to one study6and ranged between 2.4-3.1 hours in another study.15Repetitive dosing of erythromycin leads to increased elimination half-life.16

Clearance

The clearance of erythromycin in healthy subjects was 0.53 ± 0.13 l/h/kg after a 125mg intravenous dose.11In a clinical study of healthy patients and patients with liver cirrhosis, clearance of erythromycin was significantly reduced in those with severe liver cirrhosis.17The clearance in cirrhotic patients was 42.2 ± 10.1 l h–1 versus 113.2 ± 44.2 l h-1 in healthy patients.17

In prokaryotes, the 23S rRNA is part of the large subunit (the 50S) that joins with the 30S small subunit to create the functional 70S ribosome. The ribosome is comprised of 3 RNAs: the 23S, the 16S and the 5S ribosomal RNAs. The 23S and the 5S associate with their respective proteins to make up the large subunit of the ribosome, while the 16S RNA associates with its proteins to make up the small subunit.
