Antimicrobial Stewardship Program of Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh: Running Fast to catch the Missed Bus

Abstract

ABSTRACT Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated multidisciplinary effort directed at judicious use of antimicrobials. While antimicrobial stewardship is a routine activity in the developed world, the concept has evolved only of late in the developing countries including India. Started initially as a research project, a formal antimicrobial stewardship committee was constituted in the institute. The present article highlights the work done so far, problems faced, and the future of antimicrobial stewardship related activities in the institute.
