long term use of erythromycin opthalmic

An opthamologist at Jules Stein gave me a 90 day prescription for erythrommycin ophthalmic ointment with 2 refills. When I filled the prescription, the pharmacist commented that this medication was normally prescribed for only 1 week. I called Jules Stein to check the prescription and was told that the prescription is correct (did not actually talk to the doctor). Is there danger of using this medication (applied at night only) for several months?
