The potential emergence of azithromycin resistance highlights the need for alternative options for management of Shigella infections in countries where ShIGella is endemic and proposes susceptibility breakpoints that may allow better recognition of resistant isolates. ABSTRACT Infection by Shigella spp. is a common cause of dysentery in Southeast Asia. Antimicrobials are thought to be
Common first-line oral antibiotics for susceptible Shigella infections are fluoroquinolones (for adults) and azithromycin (for children).
While doxycycline may be better for chlamydia treatment, azithromycin was better for coinfection treatment (such as shigella or mycoplasma).
Decreased susceptibility to azithromycin and/or other antibiotics has also been detected in several Shigella sonnei and Shigella flexneri
In this study, 5-day courses of azithromycin or cefixime for antibiotic-resistant shigella produced excellent results. Azithromycin provides

I went to the General Practitioner at 9:00 am for my 6 month check up (and to check up on what had happened at the start of the year). It seems I've developed a respiratory infection so I was given some of those horse pill to fight it (Azithromycin) ... which came with THREE Level Three drug interaction warnings ... including the freaking risk of death ~ when in league with my Clozapine ... WOOT!
Next I learned my Urologist has 'misplaced' the initial files on my testosterone prescription ... which came from my Endocrinologist years and years ago. Now I have to wait for two weeks (and two blood draws) to show I have low-T so I can have the pleasure of my wife injecting me in the tush every Monday night. Until then I will be running around with less energy than I am currently struggling with ... DOUBLE-WOOT!!!
And lets not forget I am having to remove all caffeine from my diet as well so I'm already pretty much a walking zombie ... Triple woot?
Lastly, thanks to snow last week, I have my entire family in the house until FRIDAY ... which is stressing out my normally hermit-like nature. I love my kids, but at the moment my daughter is working on her cosplay outfit for Animazement which she does in my Man-Cave because it has more room to spread out in. I'm slowly losing my ever-loving MIND!!!!
Progress report: Nothing really. I haven't done any constructive work in the past two weeks and very little before then. I am trying to put out a story I started on back in 2016 and I have a chapter and a half already developed.
I have done no work on the next chapter of Ebb Tide. I know where I want to go, but am unsure how I'm going to get there.
As always, if anyone wants to ready what I am working on, just drop me a line.
Thanks for all of your concern and take care,
