Background Typhoid fever is still an important public health problem in developing countries. Increasing resistance of Salmonella Typhi to antibiotics is alarming. New extensively drug-resistant strains of Salmonella reported first time in Pakistan, resistant not only to first-line drugs and ciprofloxacin but also resistant to ceftriaxone, had spread globally, including the USA. Due to this continuously changing pattern of antimicrobial resistance in typhoid fever due to Salmonella Typhi, there is a substantial need to study the resistance pattern of Salmonella Typhi frequently in different areas to detect the new resistant strains timely. The objective of this study was to evaluate the current trends in the resistance pattern of Salmonella Typhi in a tertiary care hospital in Northern Punjab.
