Which antibiotics are safe for patients with history of qt prolongation and liver/kidney disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few: Traditionally the marcolide antibiotics (erythromycin type) are associated with qt prolongation. In addition, quinolones have also been associated. Whenever antibiotics may be needed, make sure you alert the prescriber of your condition beforehand.
