Abstract

Successful Antimicrobial stewardship program implementation has been reported to be useful in increasing compliance to hospital antibiotic prescribing policies and limiting irrational antimicrobial use. Such improvements can indirectly reduce antimicrobial resistance. This is in line with the results of the current study, where a significant reduction in broad-spectrum antimicrobials was observed. Antibiotic Susceptibility shows more than 80% sensitivity for Cefoperazone + Sulbactum equal to High End Antibiotics. The results of this study show that, after 5 years, the strategy of implementing a global AMSP in a tertiary hospital was associated with significant benefits in reducing antimicrobial consumption, protection of the ecosystem and lower economic cost, without prejudice to the patient. Overall, it is evident that a multidisciplinary approach and leadership involvement strengthen the implementation process.
