ANIMAL TOXICITY STUDIES:
NON-HUMAN TOXICITY EXCERPTS:
/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Developmental or Reproductive Toxicity/ The
potential reproductive toxicity and teratogenicity of azithromycin, an
azalide antibiotic, was assessed in the rat and mouse. Reproduction and
fertility studies were performed in the Long-Evans rat at oral doses of
10, 20 and 30 mg/kg/day. Males were treated for nine weeks prior to and
during mating, and females for two weeks prior to mating and throughout
mating, gestation and lactation. Half of the females were sacrificed and
evaluated on day 14 of gestation, and the remaining females were killed on
day 21 post-partum. Postnatal development testing on F1 pups was performed
during lactation. F1 pups were raised to maturity and mated to produce an
F2 generation, and all animals were sacrificed at weaning. Pregnancy rate
was decreased at the 20 mg/kg/day level but no other azithromycin related
effects were detected upon reproductive parameters in F0 dams or in the F1
or F2 generation. Two additional fertility studies suggested that
azithromycin may cause a minimal reduction in fertility at 20 and 30 mg/kg
compared to controls and that both male and female rats must be
simultaneously treated to affect pregnancy rate. These pregnancy rates
were, however, still within the range of our historical control data.
Embryotoxicity and teratogenicity of azithromycin were evaluated in female
Sprague-Dawley rats at oral doses of 10, 20, 40, 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg/day
administered from days 6 to 15 post-insemination. A slight delay in
ossification was noted in fetuses at the 200 mg/kg dose level and was
related to evidence of maternal toxicity. Azithromycin was not teratogenic
at any dose level. Similar studies in albino mice at the same dose level
did not produce embryotoxic, fetotoxic, or teratogenic effects, and fetal
tissue concentrations were higher than in maternal plasma or amniotic
fluid. Azithromycin was tested in Sprague-Dawley rats to evaluate
peri-natal effects on dams and on postnatal development of their pups.
Dose levels were 10, 20, 40, 50, 100 or 200 mg/kg/day administered from
day 15 post-insemination through day 20 post-partum. Effects noted at
doses of 50 mg/kg and higher included decreased pup body weight, decreased
pup viability and delayed development which correlated with greater litter
size. There were no malformations or severe lesions in any of the
pups.[Stadnicki SW et al; Oyo Yakuri 51 (2): 85-95 (1996)] **PEER

The average tissue half life of azithromycin is estimated to be 1-4 days.
The half life of the drug in peripheral leukocytes ranges from 34-57
hours.[McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug

Serum: 11 to 14 hours when measured between 8 and 24 hours after a single,
oral dose of 500 mg; however, after several doses, the half-life is
approximately the same as the half-life in tissues. Tissue: 2 to 4
days.[MICROMEDEX Thomson Health Care. USPDI - Drug Information for the

MECHANISM OF ACTION:
Azithromycin binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit of the 70S ribosome of
susceptible organisms, thereby inhibiting RNA-dependent protein
synthesis.[MICROMEDEX Thomson Health Care. USPDI - Drug Information for
the Health Care Professional. 23rd ed. Volume 1. MICROMEDEX Thomson Health
Care, Greenwood Village, CO. 2003. Content Reviewed and Approved by the
U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, Inc., p. 459] **PEER REVIEWED**
Azithromycin inhibits protein synthesis in susceptible organisms by
penetrating the cell wall and binding to 50S ribosomal subunits, thereby
inhibiting translocation of aminoacyl transfer-RNA and inhibiting
polypeptide synthesis. ... The antimicrobial activity of azithromycin is
reduced at low pH. Azithromycin concentrates in phagocytes, including
polymorphonuclear leukocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and fibroblasts.
Penetration of the drug into phagocytic cells is necessary for activity
against intracellular pathogens (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus, Legionella
pneumophila, Chlamydia trachomatis, Salmonella typhi).[McEvoy, G.K. (ed.).

INTERACTIONS:
Concurrent use with macrolide antibiotics has been associated with

clinical success of treatment-ie, cessation of watery diarrhea within 48
hr and bacteriological success-ie, absence of Vibrio cholerae O1 or O139
from cultures of stool or rectal swab samples after study day 2. Analysis
was per protocol. Two children in both groups withdrew from the study, and
we excluded one child in the erythromycin group. Treatment was clinically
successful in 48 (76%) patients who received azithromycin and 39 (65%) who
received erythromycin (difference 11%, 95% CI -5 to 27, p=0.244); and
bacteriologically successful in 45 (71%) and 49 (82%) patients,
respectively (10%, -5 to 25, p=0.261). Patients treated with azithromycin
had a shorter duration of diarrhea (median 24 hr vs 42 hr; difference 12
hr, 0-18 hr, p=0.019) and fewer episodes of vomiting (1 vs 4; difference 1
episode, 0-3 episodes, p=0.023). Single-dose azithromycin is as effective
for treatment of cholera in children as standard erythromycin therapy, but
is associated with less vomiting.[Khan WA et al; Lancet 360 (9347): 1722-7

target=new>PubMed Abstract
Relentless chronic pulmonary inflammation is the major contributor to
morbidity and mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). While
immunomodulating therapies such as prednisolone and ibuprofen may be
beneficial, their use is limited by side effects. Macrolides have
immunomodulatory properties and long term use dramatically improves
prognosis in diffuse panbronchiolitis, a condition with features in common
with the lung disease of CF. To determine if azithromycin improves
clinical parameters and reduces inflammation in patients with CF, a 3
month prospective randomised double blind, placebo controlled study of
azithromycin (250 mg/day) was undertaken in adults with CF. Monthly
assessment included lung function, weight, and quality of life (QOL).
Blood and sputum collection assessed systemic inflammation and changes in
bacterial flora. Respiratory exacerbations were treated according to the
policy of the CF Unit. Sixty patients were recruited (29 men) of mean (SD)
age 27.9 (6.5) years and initial forced expiratory volume in 1 second
(FEV1) 56.6 (22.3)% predicted. FEV1% and forced vital capacity (FVC)%
predicted were maintained in the azithromycin group while in the placebo
group there was a mean (SE) decline of -3.62 (1.78)% (p=0.047) and -5.73
(1.66)% (p=0.001), respectively. Fewer courses of intravenous antibiotics
were used in patients on azithromycin (0.37 v 1.13, p=0.016). Median C
reactive protein (CRP) levels declined in the azithromycin group from 10
to 5.4 mg/ml but remained constant in the placebo group (p < 0.001). QOL
improved over time in patients on azithromycin and remained unchanged in
those on placebo (p=0.035). Azithromycin in adults with CF significantly
improved QOL, reduced CRP levels and the number of respiratory
exacerbations, and reduced the rate of decline in lung function. Long term
azithromycin may have a significant impact on morbidity and mortality in
patients with CF. Further studies are required to define frequency of
dosing and duration of benefit.[Wolter J et al; Thorax 57 (3): 212-6

target=new>PubMed Abstract
A 4-year-old boy with acute lymphoblastic anemia in remission had a
prolonged course of diarrhea and wasting. C. parvum was identified in the
gastrointestinal tract by biopsy and in the stool using modified acid fast
staining. Improvement in the stool consistency was noted after 3 days of
therapy with azithromycin, and, after 14 days of therapy, Cryptosporidium
oocysts could no longer be identified in the stool. C. parvum should be
considered in all immunocompromised patients with severe or prolonged
diarrhea, especially if there is no blood or leukocytes in the stool.
