Erythrocin may be used to treat bacterial infections affecting areas such as:
It may also be used as an alternative for some people who cannot take certain other antibiotics, such as penicillin.
Erythrocin belongs to a group of antibiotics called macrolides.
It works by stopping bacteria from making the proteins they need to grow and multiply.
This helps stop the infection from spreading and allows your body to fight the remaining bacteria.
Erythrocin treats bacterial infections only.
It does not work against viral infections such as the common cold or flu.
Take Erythrocin exactly as prescribed and complete the full treatment course, even if you begin to feel better.
Take Erythrocin exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
Erythrocin Stearate comes as a film-coated tablet that is taken by mouth.
Erythrocin is usually best taken on an empty stomach, about 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal.
If the medication upsets your stomach, your healthcare provider may recommend taking it with food or milk.
Try to take each dose at evenly spaced times throughout the day.
Swallow the tablets whole with water.
Do not crush or chew them unless your healthcare provider or pharmacist tells you it is safe to do so.
Crushing the tablets can cause a strong bitter taste.
The dose depends on the type and severity of the infection.
A common adult dose is:
Your healthcare provider may prescribe a different dose depending on your infection and response to treatment.
Children’s doses are usually based on body weight and the type of infection being treated.
Follow the exact dose prescribed for your child.
Take Erythrocin for the full length of time prescribed, even if you begin to feel better sooner.
Stopping an antibiotic too early may allow the infection to return and can contribute to antibiotic resistance.
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember.
If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.
Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
Erythrocin is available in the following form and strength:
Do not take Erythrocin if you are allergic to erythromycin or another macrolide antibiotic.
Seek medical attention right away if you develop hives, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, or trouble breathing.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Erythromycin may be used during pregnancy when your healthcare provider believes the expected benefit is greater than the possible risk.
Erythromycin can pass into breast milk.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are breastfeeding so they can decide whether treatment is appropriate.
Erythrocin can interact with many medications.
Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.
Important interactions can occur with certain:
Some combinations can increase the risk of serious side effects.
Erythromycin can rarely cause changes in the heart’s electrical rhythm, including QT prolongation.
The risk may be higher if you already have a heart rhythm problem, have low potassium or magnesium, or take other medications that affect heart rhythm.
Seek medical attention if you develop fainting, severe dizziness, or a fast or irregular heartbeat.
Using erythromycin for too long or too often can allow bacteria or fungi that are not affected by the antibiotic to grow.
Tell your healthcare provider if you develop new or worsening symptoms during treatment.
Take Erythrocin for the full amount of time prescribed, even if you begin to feel better sooner.
Stopping treatment too early may allow the infection to return and can contribute to antibiotic resistance.
Do not take more or less medication than prescribed.
If you have questions about your dose, treatment length, or other medications you take, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
Erythrocin Stearate is usually best taken on an empty stomach, about 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal. If it upsets your stomach, your healthcare provider may recommend taking it with food or milk. Follow the instructions provided with your prescription.
The length of treatment depends on the type and severity of your infection. Some infections may require treatment for 5 to 10 days, while others may need a longer course. Take Erythrocin for the full time prescribed, even if you start to feel better sooner.
Erythromycin can increase movement in the stomach because it acts on receptors involved in a hormone called motilin. This effect may make some people notice increased stomach contractions or feelings of hunger. Not everyone experiences this effect, and it is not usually a reason to stop treatment.
