    Author: Grondin C, Imbert P, Ficko C, Mérens A, Dutasta F, Bigaillon C, Rapp C.
    Journal: J Travel Med; 2012 Jul; 19(4):258-60. PubMed ID: 22776390.
    Abstract:
    Shigella bacteremias are uncommon in immune-competent adults. We report two cases of Shigella flexneri bacteremia that occurred in healthy young travelers, who recovered. Self-medication with loperamide and ibuprofen without antibiotics (case 1) and concomitant falciparum malaria (case 2) were the only co-morbidities found in our two patients.
