Antibiotic Susceptibility of 206 Haemophilus influenzae Isolates Collected from Children in Central Italy

Susceptibility of 206 H. influenzae isolates was evaluated by disk diffusion method for 11 antimicrobial agents. No isolates were found to be resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, amoxicillin+clavulanic acid, gentamicin and ciprofloxacin. Four untypable isolates (1.9%) were β-lactamase produ...

Zusammenfassung:	Susceptibility of 206 H. influenzae isolates was evaluated by disk diffusion method for 11 antimicrobial agents. No isolates were found to be resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, amoxicillin+clavulanic acid, gentamicin and ciprofloxacin. Four untypable isolates (1.9%) were β-lactamase producing ampicillin-resistant; one of these was also resistant to chloramphenicol. The rate of resistance against rifampin was 0.5 percent.
