According to reports, the peak concentration of 150 mg of blood is as high as 6.6-7.9 ug/ml, and the erythromycin is only 0.2-0.4 ug/ml under the same conditions; roxithromycin is mainly distributed in body fluids and tissues, with high and long-lasting tissue. Concentration and cell concentration, while the half-life is as long as 12h, while erythromycin is only 1.5 to 2.0h.
