 AB    Acute psychosis was observed in two patients with AIDS who were treated
       with clarithromycin for disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex
       infection. The psychosis resolved when treatment with clarithromycin was
       discontinued and recurred when it was resumed. An adverse response to
       clarithromycin therapy is a rare but curable cause of acute psychosis in
       patients with AIDS.
