  • Title: Antimicrobial drug susceptibility of respiratory isolates of Hemophilus influenzae from adults.
    Author: Saginur R, Bartlett JG.
    Journal: Am Rev Respir Dis; 1980 Jul; 122(1):61-4. PubMed ID: 6967709.
    Abstract:
    Hemophilus influenzae isolates from sputum of 111 patients with chronic bronchitis were tested for susceptibility to 8 antimicrobial drugs. A new beta-lactam, LY-127935, was the most active agent tested. Ampicillin, cefamandole, tetracycline, and cefuroxime showed good activity against most isolates. Two strains, both nontypable, were resistant to ampicillin and produced beta-lactamase. Cefaclor was somewhat less effective, although most strains were susceptible. Erythromycin and cephalexin were of limited utility.
