[The antibiotic sensitivity of the tonsillar staphylococcal and streptococcal flora in children who are frequently ill].
The frequency of recovery was studied as was sensitivity to antibiotics of staphylococci and streptococci of the faucial tonsils over the last 7 years in those children with chronic tonsillitis who are in poor health. In always ailing children, it is Staphylococcus aureus that is recovered from the tonsils more often than not, with pathogenic streptococcus being found on more rare occasions. Sensitivity of pathogenic streptococci to benzyl penicillin sodium salt has gotten much lower in recent years. This accounts for a low efficiency of penicillin therapy of streptococcal infection, which fact is to be considered in designing therapeutic measures to be instituted in those children being in poor health.
