Abstract:
Macrolides are the first selective drugs for pertussis.If it is not taken in the early phase (catarrhal stage),antibiotic treatment could only eliminate the respiratory pathogens,and then reduce the possibility of transmission while it would not improve the clinical presentation of the patients.In recent years,some studies have suggested that Bordetella pertussis was usually resistant to macrolides in China and it might have effect on antibiotic treatment.The effects of other measures in symptomatic treatment to pertussis are uncertainty.
