Pharmacokinetics of a single 1g dose of azithromycin in rectal tissue in men by Fabian Y. S. Kong (3873550)

“…Tissue concentrations were not associated with weight (mg/kg), but data suggest that increased gastric pH could increase azithromycin levels and diarrhoea or use of water-based lubricants could decrease concentrations. High and sustained concentrations of azithromycin were found in rectal tissue following a single 1g dose suggesting that inadequate concentrations are unlikely to cause treatment failure. …”
