Fluoroquinolones-resistant Shigella species in Iranian children: a meta-analysis.

CONCLUSIONS: Our findings revealed that ciprofloxacin can still be used as the first-line antibiotic for Shigella infections in Iranian children. However, it seems that second-line antibiotics i.e., ceftriaxone and azithromycin are not good choices for treatment and thus not recommended. PMID: 31154582 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
