Upper respiratory tract infection; Antibiotics’ prescribing pattern; School leave; Pediatric; Antibiotics’ stewardship |
| Core Tip |
Overprescription of antibiotics is a significant issue among clinicians in pediatric outpatient clinics. Pediatric clinicians should aim to reduce antibiotic use by addressing three fundamental questions for each patient with a suspected infection: (1) Do antibiotics need to be prescribed; (2) What is the appropriate dose thereof; and (3) What is the optimal duration of treatment. Stewardship of drugs, particularly antibiotics is a must, to prevent the development of drug resistance. |
