“…Consistent with the results of our previous study , ERY treatment suppressed sweating during and after treatment. Erythromycin‐induced anhidrosis is the likely explanation for reports of hyperthermia in foals treated for R. equi pneumonia with this antibiotic .…”

“…Because foals in the current study were protected from direct sunlight for 5 days after treatment regimens were completed, signs of heat stress attributable to treatment were not seen. In the previous study, six of 10 foals that were given ERY then immediately moved outside developed signs of heat stress within 3 days whereas only one of 24 ERY‐treated foals in the current experiment became hyperthermic during the first 3 days after turnout .…”
All macrolides commonly used to treat R. equi pneumonia, i.e. ERY, AZI and CLA, induce anhidrosis in foals. The potent anti-sudorific effect of ERY is delayed, but not substantially affected by concurrent RIF administration.

“…20,23 In Quarter Horses and American Paint Horses, MH is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait that is linked to a single point mutation in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) gene at nucleotide C7360G. 28,29 Erythromycin causes a drug-induced anhidrosis that is the likely cause of the hyperthermia. Horses with polysaccharide storage myopathy tend to have a more severe clinical phenotype if they are concurrently affected with the MH mutation.…”

“…23,24 This mutation can be identified by genetic testing. 29 Because the sweat response of treated foals is impaired, these foals are at particular risk of hyperthermia when exposed to hot, humid environments and direct sunlight. 24 Central Nervous System.…”

“…256,[279][280][281] The receptors are generally widely expressed in the lung, although the pattern of specific receptor expression can vary among species. [28][29][30] However, direct sympathetic innervation of airway smooth muscle is minimal to none, and thus stimulation of the adrenergic receptors is primarily via circulating catecholamines. Vagal-mediated parasympathetic stimulation is important in the regulation of airway smooth muscle tone, and stimulation can cause bronchoconstriction as well as mucus secretion and bronchial vasodilation.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
