Abstract

Shigella infection is commonly related to diarrhea and has been a noteworthy source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. There is a wide range of symptoms associated with these contagious microorganisms, from watery diarrhea to fulminant dysentery manifesting with recurrent bloody stools, fever, and prostration. While the mortality rate from Shigellosis has decreased significantly during the past three decades, it remains a principal cause of death in the world. The use of antibiotics in Shigella treatment remarkably lowers the mortality rates and even the prevalence of the infection. However, strains are becoming increasingly resistant, while antibiotics are becoming increasingly ineffective. Shigella species, which were previously susceptible to common antibiotics such as nalidixic acid, co-trimoxazole, chloramphenicol, and ampicillin, have become resistant to cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones and macrolides like azithromycin. These strains have caused many Shigellosis outbreaks. Men who have had sex with men (MSM) and travelers have contributed to the spreading of multiresistant Shigella strains across continents, which has prompted new antibiotic recommendations. People should be informed about the threat of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, so a periodic report of antibiotic susceptibility after analysis is essential for antibiotic treatment guidance. The present study provides a brief overview of the pathogenicity of Shigella spp., and the antibiotic resistance patterns of two common Shigella species during the last seven years in Iran were evaluated.
