About Erythromycin


Drug Name

Erythromycin


Drug Uses

Erythromycin is used treating infections caused by certain bacteria. It is also used to prevent bacterial endocarditis and attacks of rheumatic fever. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.


How to take

Use Erythromycin as directed by your doctor.

  • Take Erythromycin by mouth with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, take with food to reduce stomach irritation.
  • Swallow Erythromycin whole. Do not break, crush, or ch ew before swallowing.
  • Do not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice while you use Erythromycin.
  • Erythromycin works best if taken at the same times each day.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Erythromycin.

Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic. Macrolide antibiotics slow the growth of, or sometimes kill, sensitive bacteria by reducing the production of important proteins needed by the bacteria to survive.
