Non-prescribed antibiotic use in some developing countries and its association with drug resistance
Belkina, Tatiana ; Kolář, Jozef (advisor) ; Špliňo, Miroslav (referee) ; Tesař, Tomáš (referee)
Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Social and Clinical Pharmacy Candidate Tatiana Belkina, MSc Supervisor doc. RNDr. Jozef Kolář, CSc. Title of Doctoral Thesis Non-prescribed antibiotic use in some developing countries and its association with drug resistance Background and Aims: The global emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance remain a major challenge to infection control and a predominant reason for therapy failure. Non-prescription access to antimicrobials is common, and self- prescribing is increasingly popular in a society with non-regulated access to antimicrobials. It is crucial to avoid self-medication in order to combat antimicrobial resistance. This research need has been addressed within 4 scientific projects with the following aims: P1: We examined knowledge, attitude and practices of antibiotic use in 3 Asian countries and estimated the frequency and reasons for self- medication. P2: This study aimed to evaluate the extent of delay in diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis in Uzbekistan and identify associated risk factors. P3: To evaluate knowledge of antibiotics, race, gender and age as independent risk factors for self-medication. P4: The aim of this study was to assess the attitudes of community pharmacists regarding antibiotic use...
