Abstract

INAPPROPRIATE USE of ANTIBIOTICS is a common practice with hazardous results which emergence and spread of multiple drug resistant organisms is the most serious one. We studied antibiotic prescribing for hospitalized patients in medical and surgical wards of 17 Shahrivar Hospital of Mashhad for 8 months (June to January 1998-1999).During this period, 2401 patients of 3583 hospitalized patients received ANTIBIOTICS, on the whole, ANTIBIOTICS were used inappropriately in 97% (94% and 98% in medical and surgical wards respectively). The dosage or interval of antibiotic prescribing was inappropriate in 33% (55% and 17% in medical and surgical wards respectively). In 28%, duration of TREATMENT or prophylaxis was longer .than is recommended (7% and 36% in medical and surgical wards respectively). Finally, in 29% ANTIBIOTICS were prescribed without indication (19% and 36% in medical and surgical wards respectively). In our study, the most common fault in medical ward was wrong selection of ANTIBIOTICS (66%) and in surgical ward was use of prophylactic ANTIBIOTICS on wrong time (89%).In our study, INAPPROPRIATE USE of ANTIBIOTICS was in unacceptably high and much higher than most other countries.
