pubmed:abstractText
A multi-centre study was carried out in 107 children with skin and soft-tissue infections (46) or upper respiratory tract infections (61) to assess the effectivness of flucloxacillin (125 mg. q.d.s. for 5 days). Swabs were taken from the lesion sites before and after treatment for bacteriological assessment and sensitivity of the isolated organisms. The clinical success rate achieved was 93% in skin and soft-tissue infections and 94% in upper respiratory tract infections and these results correlate closely with the bacteriological findings. The main causative organism in the skin and soft-tissue infections was Staph. aureus which was resistant to benzyl penicillin and to ampicillin in all but 2 cases. All strains proved sensitive to flucloxacillin. Minimal side-effects were reported and the syrup presentation was well accepted.
