Objectives: Streptococcus pyogenes is associated with mild to severe infections, particularly in children and young adults. Proper antimicrobial treatment of S. pyogenes infections is important to prevent post-streptococcal complications. Therefore, the purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the prevalence of S. pyogenes antibiotic resistance among Iranian children. Methods: We identified all published studies up to 20 March 2019 related to S. pyogenes antibiotic resistance by searching Persian and English electronic databases. Search terms included S. pyogenes, children, and Iran. Out of 1022 publications, 12 articles were eligible and included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Our analysis indicated the following prevalence pattern for S. pyogenes antimicrobial resistance in Iran: 4.2% to penicillin, 38.3% to amoxicillin, 5.4% to erythromycin, 12.0% to azithromycin, 12.6% to clarithromycin, 12.4% to clindamycin, 15.3% to rifampicin, 8.1% to ceftriaxone, 17.6% to cefixime, 36.9% to ampicillin, 14.1% to vancomycin, 8.4% to chloramphenicol, 30.4% to tetracycline, 8.8% to cefotaxime, 82.8% to trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, 39.6% to gentamicin, 11.9% to ofloxacin, 28.3% to carbenicillin, 3.1% to ciprofloxacin, 6.1% to imipenem, 18.2% to cephalothin, 57.6% to tobramycin, 49.3% to kanamycin, 79.0% to cloxacillin, 12.9% to cephalexin, 10.7% to cefazolin, and 89.5% to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. Conclusions: Our findings suggest penicillin (in non-allergic children) and macrolides, lincosamides, and narrow-spectrum cephalosporins (in penicillin-allergic children) as the treatments of choice in Iran.
