A member asked:

E.coil species grown in culture ans sensitive to netromycin, meropenam, gentamyci with tazobactum, is this true?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lab is the key: There are many types of E. coli and some have more ability to cause disease than others. The lab can culture the organisms and test for sensitivity to antibiotics. This testing can then guide the type of antibiotic to use for treatment.
