Özet

To determine whether gestational use of all or specific macrolides (azithromycin, clarithromycin, roxithromycin or erythromycin) lead to an increase in rates of overall major congenital malformations, organ-specific malformations, and other adverse pregnancy outcomes in infants. PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Reprotox® databases were searched. Dichotomous outcomes or calculated log odds ratios and standard errors from observational studies are combined using the random-effects method in Review Manager 5.3. No significant increased risks for major congenital malformation (OR 1.06 [95% CI 0.99, 1.13]) and congenital heart defect (OR 1.05 [95% CI 0.92, 1.19]) following all macrolides use during the first trimester were detected. Prenatal azithromycin use was associated with a significantly increased risk of major congenital malformations in the analysis of cohort studies (OR 1.21 [95% CI 1.08–1.36]). This significance was also present in the sensitivity analysis. There were no statistically significant associations between the risk of organ specific malformations and all or specific macrolide exposures except for the decreased risk in hypospadias following erythromycin use in the meta-analysis of case-control studies (OR 0.38 [95% CI 0.18, 0.81]. Also, a significant 1.5-fold increased risk for spontaneous abortion following macrolide use was detected. A slight yet significantly increased rate of major congenital malformation with azithromycin exposure during pregnancy may be associated with maternal confounders. Nevertheless, level II ultrasound can be suggested following maternal azithromycin use during the first trimester. Future studies should take into account the inclusion of a disease-matched control group and accurate classification of the malformations. © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
