Erythromycin cyclocarbonate (Davercin) is a first generation semi-synthetic erythromycin. It is active against Gram-positive and some Gram-negative microorganisms. Davercin shows comparable or better in vitro potency, low host toxicity and improved pharmacokinetics compared with erythromycin. It is approved for the treatment of acne, atypical pneumonia (caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydia pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila), whooping cough (treatment and prevention), urethritis (caused by Ureaplasma urealyticum and Chlamydia trachomatis), gastrointestinal infection caused by Campylobacter spp., short-term infections of the skin and soft tissues (e.g. acne, staphylococcal dermatitis). In streptococcal infections, diphtheria, gonorrhea, early syphilis in patients who are allergic to penicillin, and in the prevention of bacterial endocarditis before the planned dental procedures. Adverse effects are: nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, skin allergic reactions.

Penicillin G, also known as benzylpenicillin, is a penicillin derivative commonly used in the form of its sodium or potassium salts in the treatment of a variety of infections. It is effective against most gram-positive bacteria and against gram-negative cocci. It is administered intravenously or intramuscularly due to poor oral absorption. Penicillin G may also be used in some cases as prophylaxis against susceptible organisms. Microbiology Penicillin G is bactericidal against penicillin-susceptible microorganisms during the stage of active multiplication. It acts by inhibiting biosynthesis of cell-wall mucopeptide. It is not active against the penicillinase-producing bacteria, which include many strains of staphylococci. Penicillin G is highly active in vitro against staphylococci (except penicillinase-producing strains), streptococci (groups A, B, C, G, H, L and M), pneumococci and Neisseria meningitidis. Other organisms susceptible in vitro to penicillin G are Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Bacillus anthracis, clostridia, Actinomyces species, Spirillum minus, Streptobacillus monillformis, Listeria monocytogenes, and leptospira; Treponema pallidum is extremely susceptible. Adverse effects can include hypersensitivity reactions including urticaria, fever, joint pains, rashes, angioedema, anaphylaxis, serum sickness-like reaction.
