To investigate occurrence of acquired resistance, minimum inhibitory concentrations of florfenicol for Streptococcus suis isolated in France between 2011 and 2014 were determined. No acquired resistance to florefenicol was observed among recent field isolates of S suis after more than 10 years of use of this antibiotic.
