Over half those isolates demonstrated inducible resistance. Resistance to amikacin was found in fewer than 5% of isolates from 2016 to 2021. In 2022, that result increased to 13%, but for 2023 and 2024, it had fallen back to 2%. Over the past decade, cefoxitin DST has reported the majority of isolates as intermediate, a problematic result in <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>abscessus<\/jats:italic> group (MAG) infections, which typically require long-term treatment for successful outcomes. Since 2018, the annual susceptibility rate has been \u226418%, and in five of the 7\u2009years, \u22647%. Ciprofloxacin was typically assessed as susceptible from 2009 to 2011, then decreased sharply to \u226420% over the next several years, and since 2018, the rate has been less than 5%. Through the entire study, doxycycline resistance has remained consistently high; in the years since 2018, \u22646% of isolates have been susceptible.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusion.<\/jats:bold> This study demonstrates wide variation among MAG clinical isolates in the frequency of susceptibility, both across different agents and within individual agents over time.
