Clarithromycin is an Adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing — CASRCMI  

Periodontitis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Efficacy of Clarithromycin is an Adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing .A Clinical Microbiological and Immunological Study.

Clinical Trial Summary

The present study was done to evaluate the effect of clarithromycin as an adjunct to scaling and root planning at baseline, three months and six months intervals . Clinical, microbiological and immunological parameters were taken. Clinical parameters include gingival index , probing depth and clinical attachment level. In the present study, improved clinical and microbiological outcomes were attained using adjunctive clarithromycin, including GI, PD reduction, CAL gain and reductions in the frequency of detection of C-reactive protein, Pg, Aa. These results together with the recommended easy dosage and limited side effects make the use of this antibiotic in the treatment of periodontitis patients but only for a shorter period of time.

Clinical Trial Description

Background & Objectives: Along with conventional non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) systemic antimicrobials may provide more effective treatment for chronic periodontitis by targeting tissue-invasive bacteria. The aim of this study was to evaluate the adjunctive effects of oral clarithromycin (CLM) to nonsurgical periodontal therapy for chronic periodontitis.

Materials and Methods: 30 patients were categorized into two groups: test group - Base line scaling and root planing(SRP) was done. Clarithromycin tablet 500 mg( Clarino-500) was given for a period of 7 days orally two times per day. control group -only SRP done . Clinical parameters were recorded at baseline , 3 months, and six months interval .They included gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL). Also microbial analysis of subgingival plaque samples was done at baseline, 3months and six months interval to estimate the levels of Pg and Aa bacteria using culture methods. Immunological parameter like estimation of C-Reactive protein was done in both groups at baseline 3 months and 6 months period. tests were used for statistical analysis. ;
