Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA) infections now become a threat and have spread worldwide. This can be
very serious and are among the most frequently occurring of all antibiotic-resistant threats. The antibiotic resistance problem
has been attributed to the misuse or overuse of these medications, as well as a lack of new drug development by the pharmaceutical
company. In this study total 230 outdoor and indoor patients in Bangladesh Medical College and Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh
during May 2016 to May 2017 were enrolled to detect MRSA. For this study 8 types of the biological specimen (urine, pus, blood,
sputum, swab (ear/throat/high vaginal) and stool) were collected and screened for antibiotic resistance against seven (ampicillin,
erythromycin, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, cephalexin, and penicillin) commonly used locally available antibiotics. Among
230 total 70 samples (30.4%) were found at least resistant to one drug while drug resistance pattern was Amoxicillin, Erythromycin,
Ciprofloxacin, Ceftriaxone, Cloxacillin, Cephalexin and Gentamicin.
