Erythromycin and penicillin are both antibiotics, but they belong to different classes and have distinct mechanisms of action. Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, while penicillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic that disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis. Although they are used to treat bacterial infections, their chemical structures and modes of action differ significantly. Therefore, they are not directly related in terms of classification.
