We investigated the efficacy of a novel single 2 g dose of azithromycin for the treatment of adult patients diagnosed as having acute pharyngotonsillitis or acute rhinosinusitis. Eighty-eight cases with acute pharyngotonsillitis and 174 cases with acute rhinosinusitis were included in the multicenter single group non-blinded clinical trial from Oct 29, 2010 to Mar 30, 2012. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Ethical Committee of Wakayama Medical University.<br>We assessed the severity of disease by using the scoring system based on symptoms and local findings. Clinical efficacy rates at 4 days after the treatment were as follows; “Complete response” in 54 cases (62.1%), “Efficacy A” in 22 cases (25.3%), “Efficacy B” in 10 cases (11.5%), and “Ineffective” in 1 case (1.1%) in acute pharyngotonsillitis and “Complete response” in 54 cases (32.1%), “Efficacy A” in 38 cases (22.6%), “Efficacy B” in 59 cases (35.1%), “Ineffective” in 13 cases (7.7%), and “Aggravation” in 4 cases (2.4%) in acute rhinosinusitis. The eradication rates of pathogens at 4 days after the treatment were 85.7% in acute pharyngotonsillitis and 50.8% in acute rhinosinusitis.<br>Among patients categorized as “Complete response” or “Efficacy A” at 4 days after the treatment, all cases in acute pharyngotonsillitis were involved in “Complete response” at 8 days after the treatment, and 88.1% of acute rhinosinusitis were involved in “Complete response” or “Efficacy A”.<br>These results show the high efficacy of single 2 g dose of azithromycin in treating adult acute pharyngotonsillitis and acute rhinosinusitis. Data clearly indicated the usefulness of the clinical scoring system: from which a score at 4 days after the treatment may predict the prognosis of acute infectious disease, and be helpful for decision making on antimicrobial treatments.
