- Stomatological infections.
- Non-gonococcal genital infections.
- Chemoprophylaxis of RAA relapses in case of beta-lactam allergy.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Cases of severe skin reactions including Stevens-Johnson syndrome, Lyell syndrome, and Acute Generalized Exanthematous Pustulosis (AGEP) have been reported with spiramycin. Patients should be informed of the signs and symptoms and close skin monitoring should be practiced.

The occurrence of signs or symptoms of Stevens-Jonhson Syndrome, Lyell Syndrome (e.g. progressive rash often accompanied by bullae or mucosal lesions), or AGEP (generalized febrile erythema associated with pustules) requires treatment discontinuation of treatment and contraindicates any new administration of spiramycin alone or in combination.

Drugs are not excreted from the kidney, no dose adjustment is required in patients with renal impairment.

Since very rare cases of hemolytic anemia have been reported in patients with Glucose-6-Phosphate-Dehydrogenase deficiency, the use of spiramycin in this patient population is not recommended.

QT interval prolongation

Cases of QT interval prolongation have been reported in patients taking macrolides, including spiramycin. Caution is advised during treatment with spiramycin, in patients with known risk factors for prolonging the QT interval such as:

+ uncorrected electrolyte imbalance (e.g. hypokalaemia, hypomagnesemia)

+ congenital long QT syndrome,

+ heart conditions (eg heart failure, myocardial infarction, bradycardia).

+ concomitant treatment with medicines known to prolong the QT interval (e.g. Class IA and III antiarrhythmics, tricyclic antidepressants, certain antibiotics, certain antipsychotics),

+ the elderly, newborns and women may be more sensitive to QT prolongation.
