Abstract
Our antibiotic weaponry in the form of resistance inhibitors and combination therapies are proving a failure with the extensive drug resistance scenario leaving the multidrug resistance part far behind. Culture and sensitivity interpretation redefined. Scientific innovations get modified from time to time& so get interpretations. What is logic today may not be applicable tomorrow. We have to change as per the changing times & keep abreast with latest developments& incorporate need based surveillance and research tools in our systems otherwise wrongs would continue to happen.
Highlights
Global proliferation of antibiotic resistance to microbes is attributed to injudicious use of antibiotics at global, national & local levels
Consequent upon the four research studies done at SKIMS, Kashmir India on Esbl & Mbl assays showed an alarming increase in antibiotic resistance
Technologies to diagnose Esbl & Mbl must be incorporated in diagnostic systems routinely to avoid treatment failures & as such these antibiotics need to be prescribed with utmost caution & require strict physician & patient compliance
