They are critically important for animal health and therefore it is highly important that they are used prudently to contain resistance against major animal pathogens. In addition, MLS are listed by WHO (AGISAR, 2009) as critically important for the treatment of certain zoonotic infections in humans and risk mitigation measures are needed to reduce the risk for spread of resistance between animals and humans.

    Concept Paper: Potential Approach for Ranking of Antimicrobial Drugs According to Their Importance in Human Medicine: A Risk Management Tool for Antimicrobial New Animal Drugs Introduction This concept paper discusses a potential approach to considering the human medical importance of antimicrobial drugs when assessing and managing antimicrobial resistance risks associated with the use of antimicrobial drugs in animals. In 2003, FDA established a list ranking antimicrobial drugs according to their relative importance in human medicine primarily for the purpose of supporting a qualitative risk assessment process outlined in agency guidance. It was envisioned by the Agency at the time the current medical importance rankings list was published that it would periodically reassess the rankings to align with contemporary science and current human clinical practices. To that end, this paper describes a potential revised process for ranking antimicrobial drugs according to their relative importance in human medicine, potential revised criteria to determine the medical importance rankings, and the list of antimicrobial drug medical importance rankings that would result if those criteria were to be used. Disclaimer: This concept paper is for discussion purposes only. The intent of this concept paper is to obtain public comment and early input on a potential approach to consider the human medical importance of antimicrobial drugs when assessing and managing antimicrobial resistance risks associated with the use of antimicrobial drugs in animals. This concept paper does not contain recommendations and does not constitute draft or final guidance by the Food and Drug Administration. It should not be used for any purpose other than to facilitate public comment.

    Belgian Veterinary Surveillance of Antibacterial Consumption National consumption report 2018 Publication : 19 June 2019 1 SUMMARY This annual BelVet-SAC report is now published for the 10th time and describes the antibacterial use in animals in Belgium in 2018 and the evolution since 2011. For the first time this report combines sales data (collected at the level of the wholesalers- distributors and the compound feed producers) and usage data (collected at herd level). This allows to dig deeper into AMU at species and herd level in Belgium. With -12,8% mg antimicrobial/kg biomass in comparison to 2017, 2018 marks the largest reduction in total sales of antimicrobials for animals in Belgium since 2011. This obviously continues the decreasing trend of the previous years, resulting in a cumulative reduction of -35,4% mg/kg since 2011. This reduction is evenly split over a reduction in pharmaceuticals (-13,2% mg/kg) and antibacterial premixes (-9,2% mg/kg). It is speculated that the large reduction observed in 2018 might partly be due to the effect of extra stock (of pharmaceuticals) taken during 2017 by wholesalers-distributors and veterinarians in anticipation of the increase in the antimicrobial tax for Marketing Authorisation Holders, which became effective on the 1st of April 2018. When comparing the results achieved in 2018 with the AMCRA 2020 reduction targets, the goal of reducing the overall AMU in animals with 50% by 2020 has not been achieved yet, however, the objective comes in range with still 14,6% to reduce over the next two years. Considering the large reduction observed in total AMU in 2018, it is not surprising that also in the pig sector a substantial reduction of -8,3% mg/kg between 2017 and 2018 is observed based upon the usage data.
