  1. TMP/SMX Trimethoprim Sulfamethoxazole,* Pairwise Chi square test comparison showed that the resistant rates of levofloxacin (8.33%), gentamycin (8.33%), tetracycline (25.00%), oxacillin (8.33%), vancomycin (0%) were significantly lower than the ones of erythromycin (100%), TMP/SMX (83.33%), clindamycin (91.67%), penicillin G(100%) (p < 0.001)
