The emergence of azithromycin-resistant <i>Salmonella</i> Typhi in Nepal

2020-08-12

Abstract excerpt

Typhoid fever remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in Asia and Africa. The emergence of azithromycin resistance in South Asia is concerning, as azithromycin is one of the last effective oral drugs for treating typhoid. In mid-2019, three azithromycin-resistant (Azith R ) S. Typhi isolates were isolated from typhoid fever patients attending Patan Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal. These organisms were wh...
