Neomycin is an antibiotic that belongs to a classification of drugs known as aminoglycosides. It is prescribed by veterinarians to treat and prevent a wide range of bacterial infections, predominantly those found in the intestines.
Several classes of antibiotics are effective against atypical pathogens. However, because C. pneumoniae and Legionella species are intracellular organisms and M. pneumoniae lacks a cell wall, beta-lactams are not effective. Erythromycin and, in some cases, tetracycline have been traditional choices for the treatment of pneumonia caused by atypical pathogens. There are few (if any) clinical trials demonstrating the efficacy of erythromycin for Legionella infection.
