Due to misuse of antibiotics, the number of resistant bacteria are growing day by day. A total of 150 prescriptions were analyzed. Different classes of antibiotics were prevalent in different places. Whereas Quinolones were used in 29% of cases in Dhaka, 3rd generation Cephalosporins were used in villages in 28% of cases. These two broad spectrum antibiotics were used in highest amount in both places respectively. The rate of diagnosis indicated in villages was quite low, only 25% and in Dhaka it was 44%, which is not satisfactory as well. Antibiotics aren’t supposed to be used without diagnosis since it can have severe side effects if not used properly.51 pagesenBrac University theses are protected by copyright.
