A reversible thermosensitive recording medium having a supporting substrate and a reversible thermosensitive recording layer formed on the supporting substrate, being capable of reversibly varying color density depending upon temperature with improved durability, is provided. The recording medium has the rates of changes in recording sensitivity and in erasure sensitivity, which are caused by the immersion in an artificial perspiration liquid, of 50% or less and 80% or more, respectively, and an average maximum particle size of organic materials of 2.5 microns at most.
