Abstract
The in-vitro activity of amoxycillin/clavulanic acid, amoxycillin, erythromycin, doxycycline, chloramphenicol and cephalexin against 183 clinical isolates of Haemophilus influenzae and 61 of Branhwnella catarrhalis was determined. Amoxycillin/clavulanic acid showed the greatest activity against H. influenzae. All isolates of B. catarrhalis were susceptible to amoxycillin/clavulanic acid, chloramphenicol, cephalexin and doxycycline.Keywords
