Pharmacology: UPLORES is a macrolide antibiotic with actions and uses similar to those of erythromycin.
UPLORES is rapidly absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract and differs from erythromycin where its bioavailability is not markedly affected by milk or food.
After oral doses, high concentrations of UPLORES are achieved in pulmonary, prostatic and tonsillar tissues, and in tear and pleural fluids. It is not, however, detected in the cerebrospinal fluid of subjects with non-inflamed meninges or in saliva.
