Erythromycin can be used in the treatment of dental abscesses, however it is typically reserved for use in patients that have a history of allergy with the penicillin family of antibiotics which are generally the medications of first choice.

∙ 14y agoYes, I am using erythromycin right now. My face is a little swollen because i have an infection in one of my top back teeth. It has an anti-imflammitory in it so will help with my swelling, i have teamed it with corsodyl antibacterial mouthwash which is for gum and mouth problems which is the best one to use.
Only started using them today took my first one an hour ago.
