  • Title: Congenital syphilis after maternal treatment with erythromycin.
    Author: Fenton LJ, Light IJ.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1976 Apr; 47(4):492-4. PubMed ID: 943741.
    Abstract:
    A case is reported in which erythromycin was used successfully to treat maternal syphilis but failed to adequately treat the fetus. This report and similar studies suggest that oral erythromycin is not a reasonable alternative drug for the treatment of lues in the penicillin-allergic gravid female.
