  • Description: ABSTRACT In vitro activities of telithromycin compared to those of erythromycin against Rickettsia spp., Bartonella spp., Coxiella burnetii , and Ehrlichia chaffeensis were determined. Telithromycin was more active than erythromycin against Rickettsia , Bartonella , and Coxiella burnetii , with MICs of 0.5 μg/ml, 0.003 to 0.015 μg/ml, and 1 μg/ml, respectively, but was inactive against Ehrlichia chaffeensis .
