title: In-vitro activity of roxithromycin against Chlamydia trachomatis.
abstract: Ten Chlamydia trachomatis isolates were tested for their sensitivity to roxithromycin, in comparison with erythromycin and tetracycline. The minimum inhibitory and minimum bactericidal concentrations of roxithromycin ranged from 0.03-0.12 and 0.25-1 microg/ml, respectively.
