  • Title: POSSIBLE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TETRACYCLINE STABILITY AND EFFECT ON FOETAL SKELETON.
    Author: TUBARO E.
    Journal: Br J Pharmacol Chemother; 1964 Dec; 23(3):445-8. PubMed ID: 14256805.
    Abstract:
    A possible relationship between stability of a tetracycline and persistence in the foetal skeleton is discussed; it seems that the greater the stability of a tetracycline, the more it may interfere with bone-forming processes. Therefore, assuming that limited instability does not impair antibiotic potency in vivo, the use of a low-stability tetracycline seems to be a safer form of treatment in order to avoid undesired effects on the foetal skeleton.
