Abstract:
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a severe global health threat, driven by the
overuse and misuse of antimicrobials across the human, agricultural, and veterinary sectors. To
combat this, global and national AMR prevention and containment strategies have been
implemented, necessitating continuous monitoring of antimicrobial consumption (AMC) as an
integral part of antimicrobial stewardship interventions.
