Answer 1

The use of cipro , oflox, and Cefixime is well documented to treat dysentry depending up on the sensitivity pattern that is why WHO has recommended their use . The use of Colistin and furozolidine is out of fashion for long time , but these can be reconsidered after knowing the sensitivity against them.
