Abstrakt: | Macrolides and tetracyclines are antibiotics that have a range of anti‐inflammatory properties beyond their microbial capabilities. Although these antibiotics have been in widespread use, the long‐term safety profiles are limited. We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials that compared macrolides or tetracyclines with placeboes to provide long‐term safety information. We searched Medline and EMBASE from inception to October 2022 and identified studies that reported study drug‐related death, serious adverse events (SAEs), or withdrawal rates, and common adverse effects of each drug. Relative risk (RR) and number needed to harm were calculated. Of the 52 randomized clinical trials included, there are 3151 participants on doxycycline, 2519 participants on minocycline, 3049 participants on azithromycin, 763 participants on clarithromycin, 262 participants on erythromycin, and 100 participants on roxithromycin. There was no death related to any study drugs and rates of SAE were not significantly different from placebo in any drug. Overall withdrawal rates were slightly higher than placebo in doxycycline (RR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.12‐1.52) and minocycline (RR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.15‐1.46). Withdrawal rates due to adverse events were higher in doxycycline (RR, 2.82; 95% CI, 1.88‐4.22), minocycline (RR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.09‐1.98), and azithromycin (RR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.13‐2.08). Gastrointestinal disturbances are the most common tolerable adverse effects for every drug. Photosensitivity and rash are the second most common adverse effects for doxycycline and minocycline. We found no evidence that long‐term use up to 2 years of macrolides or tetracyclines was associated with increased risk of SAEs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
