Technically only certain antibiotics make the "list"....

Flagyl, fluoroquinolones, and others mentioned here.

BUT...some autism sites mention other antibiotics used long term may damage mitochondria also... I recall amoxicillin mentioned.
This is because some kids with autism diagnoses, have had long term "simple" antibiotics for chronic ear infections, and they were looking at that as a possible mito disruptor. Those antibiotics have not made it the lists as the clinically reported ones because the reported ones made it on short term usage. Mitochondria are decendents of bacteria and as such would be prone to damage from drugs that kill bacteria.

Click on the links on all the posts here to see the lists.
The longest list was at Wrong diagnosis website, which was totally changed and overhauled and that is no longer on the web, for whatever reason now.
