When I think about Macrolides, I think about 'Macklemore' singing the Thrift shop song which is good for everything (Chlamydia, Streptococcus, Mycoplasma, Haemophilius, and even the dreaded Legionella pneumonia). However, it ain't good for high-scale stuff like DRSP (Drug-resistant streptococcus Pneumoniae).

Also, remember that macrolides work on the ribosomes, therefore it ain't dependent on cell-wall. Thus, it works against small tiny bacteria such as Chlamydia & Mycoplasma.

Seriously, when we think of macrolides, we practically only use Z-Pack (azithromycin) as erythromycin has too much side effects and only useful for ointment.
