Cardiovascular Toxicity Profile of Macrolides Investigated Using VigiBase Data: A Pharmacovigilance Study.

Macrolides are associated with cardiovascular toxicity risk. However, data on their cardiovascular toxicity profiles beyond QT prolongation are limited, and differences in the profiles among various macrolide antibiotics remain unclear. We investigated the cardiovascular toxicity profiles of different macrolides using VigiBase, a global database of individual case-safety reports.
