Application

Clarithromycin was used as internal standard for plasma assay curve at higher concentrations, during extraction of azithromycin samples using liquid-liquid method followed by HPLC analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Clarithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic that interferes with bacterial protein synthesis. Clarithromycin is an acid-stable version of erythromycin and is particularly effective against Gram-negative bacteria. It has a short half-life, however its metabolite, 14-hydroxy clarithromycin is nearly twice as active as clarithromycin against certain bacteria.
