Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

Current risks from resistance, adverse drug reactions, and drug – drug interactions of clarithromycin used as a component of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy are reviewed. The acid sensitivity of clarithromycin i responsible for the dependence of its pharmacological properties on the efficacy of proton-pump inhibitors, which could be one reason for the resistance of H. pylori to the macrolide. The potential for clarithromycin drug – drug interactions is related to its metabolism by CYP3A4 and strong inhibition of this enzyme.
