Abstract:
Inappropriate use of antibiotics is of special concern globally.Nevertheless,antibiotic over use in children remains common.Overall,antibiotic use has decreased during recent years.However,prescription rates of anti-biotics were still high and there is a substantial increase of broad -spectrum antibiotic prescribing.Several factors exist in antibiotic use of children,including vaccination,guideline,clinical pathway management,prescribers,and parents′perceptions of antibiotics,et al.Therefore,the significant evaluation of antibiotic rational use in children needs further studies in detail.
