General Principles of
Prudent Used of Antibiotics
The role of
pharmacy Bacteria
identification
General principles of the
treatment of infection
• Antimicrobial agents are among the most
commonly prescribed drugs.
• The major impact on control of most bacterial
infections
• Concerns that unnecessary use is compromising
their beneficial effect
• The choice of drug,
– Its dose, route, frequency of administration.
– Depend on the pharmacological & pharmacokinetic of
particular agent and adverse reactions of the drugs

Important questions to answer
routinely before selecting an antibiotic
(1)
• Is an antibiotic indicated?
• Have appropriate specimen been obtained,
examined, and cultured?
• What organisms are most likely?
• If several antibiotics are available, which is
best?
– Drug of choice, pharmacokinetics, toxicology, cost,
narrowness of spectrum, bactericidal compared
with bacteriostatic agents.

Important questions to answer
routinely before selecting an antibiotic
(2)
• Is an antibiotic combination appropriate?
• What are the important host factors?
• What is the best route of administration?
• What is the appropriate dose?
• Will initial therapy require modification after
culture data are returned?
• What is the optimal duration of treatment, and
is development of resistances during
prolonged therapy likely to occur?

Clinical assessment
• Clinical evaluation should define the anatomical
location and severity of the infective process.
• Although such diseases may be caused by wide
variety of organisms, the range of pathogens are
usually limited.
• The pattern of susceptibility reasonably
predictable.
• Permits a rational selection of chemotherapy in
the initial management of such infections

Strategies of Antibiotic Use
• Cure the infection completely
• Avoid pathogen transmission in the ward
• Established the clinical diagnosis and look
for proven cause
• Effective therapy and prudent use
• Follow the antibiotic usage guidance
• Training of antibiotic use (certified)
• Build the Hospital Committee of Antibiotic
Use (physician, pharmacy, board of
hospital managers)
Antibiotic Stewardship
• Explain the antibiotic resistance
• Increased hospital cost
Education • Follow the guidance
• Academic detailing to all
prescriber
Selection
Depend on Extended Clinical
epidemiology empirical judgement
Susceptibility therapy No bacterial
test
Prolonged culture
No more than 72 empirical therapy
hours Negative
after 72 hours bacterial culture
but clinal support
to infection
Laboratory Assessment
• Few infective condition present a typical
picture with a definitive clinical &
microbiological diagnosis without laboratory
examination
• Whenever possible a clinical diagnosis
should be supported by laboratory
confirmation.
• Strong clinical suspected, therapy should be
given as soon as possible; while lab
assessment should be taken

II Correct indication but incorrect dose, interval and

III Correct indication with correct dose, interval, route but
not incorrect in duration of antibiotic use
IV Correct indication with correct dose, interval, route but
and duration of antibiotic use, but incorrect of
selecting the antibiotic
Outpatient Parenteral Antibiotic
Therapy (OPAT)
• Assessment before starting therapy
– patient’s general medical condition,
– the infectious process,
– the home situation is necessary
• These responsibilities
– include establishing a diagnosis,
– prescribing treatment,
– determining the appropriate site of
care,
– monitoring during therapy,
– assuring the overall quality of care

12 Steps to Prevent Antimicrobial
Resistance Among Hospitalized
Children
1. Prevent Infection
– Step 1. Vaccinate hospitalized children and
staff
– Step 2. Get the devices out
4. Prevent transmission
– Step 11. Practice infection control
– Step 12. Practice hand hygiene

Multi disciplinary Approach
• Collected data based and identifies the problems
• The strategy of antibiotic use
• Drug formularium
• Antibiotic use guidelines
• Restricted the use of antibiotic, prior approval for
certain antibiotic
• Use and follow the clinical pathways
• Post prescribing evaluation
• Switching-intravenous to oral conversion
• Prescriber education- academic detailing
