Exacerbation of symptoms of myasthenia gravis and new onset of symptoms of myasthenic syndrome have been reported in patients receiving Erythromycin therapy.
Prolonged or repeated use of Erythromycin may result in an overgrowth of nonsusceptible bacteria or fungi. If superinfection occurs, Erythromycin should be discontinued and appropriate therapy instituted.
