As tetraciclinas são uma classe de antibióticos de largo espectro indicados para uma ampla variedade de infeções bacterianas. Estes fármacos ligam-se à subunidade ribossómica 30S para inibir a síntese de proteínas bacterianas. As tetraciclinas cobrem organismos gram-positivos e gram-negativos, bem como bactérias atípicas, como clamídia, micoplasma, espiroquetas e até protozoários. A absorção oral das tetraciclinas diminui com a ingestão de alguns fármacos e suplementos (por exemplo, leite de magnésia) ou alimentos (por exemplo, lacticínios) que contêm catiões polivalentes, como cálcio e magnésio. Os efeitos adversos incluem fotossensibilidade, distúrbios gastrointestinais e pigmentação da pele no caso da minociclina. As tetraciclinas suprimem o crescimento ósseo e descoloram os dentes em crianças e estão contraindicadas na gravidez e na amamentação. É importante realçar que foram aprovadas três novas tetraciclinas pela FDA em 2018, que podem ter um papel no tratamento de certas infeções causadas por organismos resistentes a fármacos.
.
A absorção diminui em 1–2 horas após o consumo de produtos lácteos, antiácidos e quaisquer outros produtos que contenham ferro, magnésio, cálcio ou alumínio (por exemplo, suplementos, vitaminas), porque estes elementos se podem ligar às tetraciclinas e reduzir a sua capacidade de ser absorvidas.

Helicobacter pylori was originally classified in the genus campylobacter, but RNA sequencing, cellular fatty acid profiles, growth patterns, and other taxonomic characteristics indicate that the micro-organism should be included in the genus Helicobacter. It has been officially transferred to Helicobacter gen.Helicobacter (úlcera péptica)
