Lack of macrolide resistance in Chlamydia trachomatis after mass azithromycin distributions for trachoma. [Journal Article, Research Support, N.I.H., Extramural, Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't]
Emerg Infect Dis 2009 Jul; 15(7):1088-90.
We investigated antimicrobial drug resistance in ocular Chlamydia trachomatis 18 months after 4 biannual communitywide distributions of antimicrobial drugs in a region of Ethiopia where ocular strains of C. trachomatis are highly endemic. We found no significant differences in susceptibilities to azithromycin and doxycycline in 6 posttreatment and 4 pretreatment samples.
