Antimicrobial Stewardship

Antimicrobial Stewardship refers to a coordinated effort to optimize the use of antimicrobial medications (antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, etc.) in order to improve patient outcomes, minimize adverse effects, reduce the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and decrease unnecessary healthcare costs. It is a key component of modern healthcare systems, aimed at ensuring that patients receive the right drug, at the right dose, at the right time, and for the right duration.
