Selection of antibiotic therapy for Shigella infection in adults should be based on the results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing, if possible. If an agent needs to be chosen empirically, the risk of resistance based on patient demographics and local rates of resistance should be taken into account. Refer to the topic on treatment of Shigella infection in adults for additional details.
* For patients with infection due to Shigella dysenteriae type 1 or with HIV coinfection, we treat for 5 to 7 days; in the rare event of bacteremia, we treat for 14 days.
