The numerous bacteria species have developed worrisome rates of resistance to different antimicrobial treatments, posing a threat to the global public health. Even though the emergence of multi-drug resistant infections is a natural phenomenon, improper antimicrobial drug use, unsanitary living conditions, inappropriate antibiotic use and inadequate infection prevention and control procedures all contribute to its development. Here, we discussed an instance of an infection that appeared to be resistant to multiple antibiotics. In order to prevent illnesses that are resistant to several drugs, the goal is to raise knowledge about resistance and encourage the wise use of antibiotics and chemists' role in halting the spread of antibiotic resistance. Here the case report says, a 73-year-old woman who had a right cemented bipolar hip replacement and an intracapsular fracture of the neck of the femur was admitted to the orthopaedic department of General Hospital with bleeding from the surgery site for a few days. Due to her resistance to low grade doses of antibiotics, she was prescribed with high level of antibiotics such ceftazidime-avibactam (2g+0.5g) and aztreonam (1g).
