A

clarithromycin

35
Q

more acid stable; very long half life; absorption of oral dose reduced with food; concentrates in macrophages, neutrophils and fibroblasts; increased penetration in G-; NO inhibition of CYP enzymes; small increased risk for cardiac death

A

clindamycin

38
Q

inhibition of protein synthesis by binding to 30S; bacteriostatic with reversible binding to ribosome; broad spectrum; G+ and G-; aerobic and anaerobic
