Unfortunately, it is not dropped completely, just reduced in the bacterial population. It would seem a simple idea to just rotate antibiotics (use for a few years then put on the shelf for a few years), but once a bacterial pathogen acquires resistance it never really loses it and once you start using the the antibiotic again the resistance roars back very quickly.
