Erythromomycin is a broad spectrum anti-biotic used for things like phayngitis, sinusitis, bronchitis, and ocaasionally pneumonia.
It works just fine. Let your doctor know if you have any stomach problems when taking it (the most common side effect). also, be sure to take the ENTIRE course of treatment, whether it's 5 days, 7, days, or even up to 10 days. Do NOT stop when you "feel better"... you must take the entire course of treatment to knock out the infection.

Erythromycin is used for many ailments also to treat acne from the inside. Take it with food because it will make your stomach hurt.
