Antibiotic stewardship is a critical strategy in the fight against antimicrobial resistance, a global health threat. The overuse and misuse of antibiotics contribute significantly to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, making infections harder to treat and posing a serious public health challenge. Antibiotic stewardship encompasses various interventions, including antibiotic prescribing guidelines, education for healthcare professionals and patients, antimicrobial stewardship teams, and surveillance of antibiotic use and resistance patterns. By promoting appropriate antibiotic use, optimizing treatment outcomes, and minimizing the spread of antibiotic-resistant infections, antibiotic stewardship programs are instrumental in preserving the effectiveness of antibiotics for future generations. Collaboration between healthcare providers, policymakers, and the public is essential to ensure the success of antibiotic stewardship efforts and combat the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance.
