Prudent use of antimicrobial agents: not just for humans

Investigation article published in Enfermedades Infecciosas y Microbiología Clínica

December 1st, 2010

The use of antimicrobial agents (AA) is required for the treatment of infectious diseases, but, at the same time, is the main cause for the selection of antimicrobial resistant bacteria. The wide use of AA in human medicine is a key cause of this problem, but not the only one, as other ‘‘non-human’’ uses of AA are also contributing to the alarming increase of resistant bacteria.
