Abstract
The susceptibilities to erythromycin, rifampin, polymyxin B, ampicillin, tetracycline, gentamicin, fusidic acid, trimethoprim, and spectinomycin of 100 strains of Bordetella pertussis isolated between 1960 and 1981 were compared. No change in susceptibility to any of these drugs was noted.
