This product is a macrolide antibiotic, made from the culture broth of the actinomycete Streptomyces erythreus isolated from the soil on the island of Panay. It was first published by EliLilly in 1952. Several analogues such as erythromycin B and C are produced in the culture solution at the same time, and the difference in solvent solubility is used to remove them. This product is white or light yellow-white crystalline powder, odorless, bitter, hygroscopic in the air, soluble in ethanol, chloroform, acetone and ether, etc., slightly soluble in water. The solubility increases after salt formation. It is relatively stable in a dry state, and the aqueous solution is relatively stable under refrigeration, and the potency gradually decreases at room temperature. It is unstable when exposed to acid, and is relatively stable when slightly alkaline, and its potency is significantly reduced below pH 4. MP 135-140°C (decomposition), specific rotation -70~78° (2%, ethanol solution).
This product is suitable for neonatal sepsis, sepsis, and central nervous system infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Serratia Meningitis), urogenital infections, lung infections, biliary tract infections, abdominal infections and peritonitis, bone infections, burns, skin and soft tissue infections, acute and chronic otitis media, sinusitis, etc., or combined with other antibacterial drugs for staphylococcal infection (Methicillin-resistant strains are invalid). The product can be administered by intrathecal injection when used for Pseudomonas aeruginosa meningitis or ventriculitis; when used for bronchial and lung infections, the product can be inhaled as an adjuvant treatment.
