Unknown
HYFTOR (solithromycin) is a macrolide antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, blocking peptide bond formation and inhibiting translation. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by modulating cytokine production and neutrophil activity.
Hydrocortisone: 100-200 mg IV as initial dose, then 50-100 mg IV every 6 hours, or 0.18 mg/kg/h IV continuous infusion.
0.5% gel, apply a thin layer to the treatment area once daily at bedtime. Duration: 4-8 weeks.

2–4 hours (terminal); prolonged in renal impairment.
Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 5.5 hours (range: 3.2–9.1 h), supporting twice-daily dosing.
Renal: 90% as unchanged drug; fecal: 10%.
Primarily hepatic metabolism; minimal renal excretion (<1% as unchanged drug). Eliminated via feces (84%) and urine (4%) as metabolites.
