Optimizing Antibiotic Usage and Mitigating Resistance: Approaches to Antibiotic Stewardship Initiatives

Abstract

Anthony Fabienne*

Antibiotics have played a crucial role in modern medicine, revolutionizing the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the overuse and misuse of antibiotics have led to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, posing a significant threat to global public health. In response to this growing concern, Antibiotic Stewardship Initiatives have been developed to optimize antibiotic usage and minimize the development of resistance. Antibiotics, hailed as medical marvels for their ability to combat bacterial infections, have become a cornerstone of modern healthcare. However, the escalating threat of antibiotic resistance necessitates a closer examination of antibiotic usage. Striking a delicate balance between harnessing the benefits of antibiotics and curbing resistance is essential for preserving their efficacy over time.
