Different azithromycin protocols for management of preterm prelabour rupture of membranes: a randomized clinical trial.

Background: Preterm prelabor rupture of membranes is associated with polymicrobial infection; hence broad-spectrum antibiotics are recommended. Nowadays, Azithromycin is used instead of Erythromycin due to erythromycin shortages, its ease of administration, decreased cost, and better side effect profile. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different azithromycin protocols for the conservative management of preterm prelabor rupture of membranes.
