| Abstract;Studies on a combination therapy of fosfomycin(FOM) and norfloxacin(NFLX) against chronic otitis media were performed, and the following result were obtained. 1. The fractional inhibitory concentration index(FIC index).LEQ.0.5 between FOM and NFLX showed 66.7%(4/6) against S. aureus isolated from chronic otitis media and 80.5%(4/5) against P. aeruginosa. 2. Clinical effects was excellent in 2 cases(18.2%), good in 6 cases(54.5%) and poor in 3 cases(27.3%). 3. Bacteriologically 9 strains out of 11 patients were eradicated after the combination treatment; 5/6 in S. aureus and 4/5 in P. aeruginosa. 4. No adverse effect and abnormal laboratory findings were observed in this study. It is suggested that the combination of FOM otic solution and NFLX is useful for the treatment of chronic otitis media.
