R to @ECDC_EU: The resistance to:
➡️ #azithromycin 📈 to 25.6% from 14.2% in 2021.
➡️ #ciprofloxacin 📈 to 65.9% from 62.8% in 2021.
➡️ #cefixime remains low at 0.3%.

Continued monitoring is crucial, as #gonococcal strains resistant to cefixime & ceftriaxone spread internationally.

Liquid #Biaxin / #clarithromycin might be available, but supply has been limited lately. Call the pharmacy and ask if they have it before coming in.

#Zithromax / #Azithromycin is easier to find (for now). Same with #Cefzil / #cefprozil , #Keflex / #cephalexin , & #Suprax / #cefixime .

Note: I'm familiar with #ShoppersDrugMart / #loblaw inventory. #Rexall or #Walmart use a different supplier, they might have something we don't. #antibioticshortage #LondonON #ldnont /4
