The clinical efficacy of a macrolide antibiotic, roxithromycin, was evaluated in 24 patients affected by acute odontogenic infections. Patients were treated with a first dose of 300 mg p.o. which was followed by 150 mg p.o. 12-hourly for the following two days. Total responses were evaluated by an arbitrary scale. The results showed that an excellent and good response was obtained in 99.96% of treated patients. On the basis of clinically compared data and the drug safety it may be concluded that roxithromycin can be successfully used in the treatment of odontogenic infections.

Abstract

The clinical efficacy of a macrolide antibiotic, roxithromycin, was evaluated in 24 patients affected by acute odontogenic infections. Patients were treated with a first dose of 300 mg p.o. which was followed by 150 mg p.o. 12-hourly for the following two days. Total responses were evaluated by an arbitrary scale. The results showed that an excellent and good response was obtained in 99.96% of treated patients. On the basis of clinically compared data and the drug safety it may be concluded that roxithromycin can be successfully used in the treatment of odontogenic infections.
