Lawrence J. Fenton, MD and Irwin J. Light, MD

From the Department of Pediatrics. University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, the Crosley Memorial Nursery of the Cincinnati General Hospital and the Children's Hospital Research Foundation. Cincinnati. Ohio

A case is reported in which erythromycin was used successfully to treat maternal syphilis but failed to adequately treat the fetus. This report and similar studies suggest that oral erythromycin is not a reasonable alternative drug for the treatment of lues in the penicillin-allergic gravid female.
