“…World Health Organization (WHO) recommended that azithromycin or the third generation of cephalosporin or a 10-14 days course of high dose fluroquinolones for the treatment of nalidixic acid resistant typhoid (NART). 6,18 In this study all the 203 isolates were sensitive to ceftriaxone which correlates with other data. 6,10,13 So dependence is now on 3 rd generation cephalosporin.…”

“…6,15 In this study most of the Salmonella typhi were sensitive to cotrimoxazole. Ampicillin, chloramphenicol and cotrimoxazole are not being used to treat of typhoid fever cases for the last one decade and susceptibility to these drugs is reappearing in Salmonella.…”

“…12 In our study, we also found similar findings. In our study causative organism of enteric fever were predominantly S. typhi followed by S. paratyphi which was correlated with study of Begum et al 13 However, Shirakawa et al found their study S. paratyphi was the commonest cause of typhoid fever. 14 Out break of typhoid fever, resistant to various drugs, have been reported from different parts of the world 15,16 as well as in Bangladesh.…”

“…19 High susceptibility to chloramphenicol, cotrimoxazole and ampicillin were also reported from several parts of India such as Bangaluru, Chennai, Chandigarh, Central west and northern India. 20 In Bangladesh, study done by Begum et al 13 revealed increased sensitivity to chloramphenicol, ampicillin and cotrimoxazole over the 2 year study periods. Probably, clinicians are not using amoxicillin, cotrimoxazole and chloramphenicol very frequently in this region and drug resistance strains have been eliminated.…”

Enteric fever is still an important public health problem in many developing countries like Bangladesh. A changing antibiotic susceptibility pattern of Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi A and emergence of multidrug resistance has increased to a greater concern. The present study was undertaken to find out the rate of isolation of Salmonella from Blood samples and to compare the changing patterns of drug resistance at Holy Family Hospital and Medical College and Hospital over a two year study period from January 2013 to December 2014. During the period January 2013 to December 2013, total 31 Salmonella were isolated (14% of blood isolates) in which Salmonella typhi were 27 and Salmonella paratyphi were 4. Again, during the period January 2014 to December 2014, total 27 Salmonella were isolated (10% of blood isolates) in which Salmonella typhi were 23 and Salmonella paratyphi were 4. The rate of isolation of S. typhi was noted higher among pediatric group when compared to adult group in both study periods. The sensitivity of cotrimoxazole and chloramphenicol was increased which were (80-88)% & (79-93)% respectively in 2 year study period. Nalidixic acid resistant Salmonella typhi(NARST) was 88-89% and all of NARST showing good sensitivity to ciprofloxacin. In our study period, Azythromycin resistance rate is increasing from 30-35%. All the isolates were fully susceptible to 3rd generation of cephalosporin in both study periods. The rate of Multi drug resistant(MDR) was (6.5-7.4)%; which was low in 2 year period. The policy of empirical treatment of enteric fever needs to be rationalized and newer generation antibiotics should be restricted only for multi-resistant cases of enteric fever.
