  • Impetigo: Antimicrobial Prescribing
    DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION 1 Impetigo: antimicrobial prescribing 2 NICE guideline 3 Draft for consultation, August 2019 This guideline sets out an antimicrobial prescribing strategy for impetigo. It aims to optimise antibiotic use and reduce antibiotic resistance. The recommendations in this guideline are for the use of antiseptics and antibiotics to manage impetigo in adults, young people and children. It does not cover diagnosis. Please note that the scope of this guideline is for adults, young people and children aged 72 hours and over. For treatment of children in the first 72 hours of life, please seek specialist advice. For managing other skin infections, see our web page on skin conditions. See a 2-page visual summary of the recommendations, including tables to support prescribing decisions. Who is it for? • Healthcare professionals • Adults, young people and children with impetigo, their parents and carers The guideline contains: • the draft recommendations • the rationales • summary of the evidence. Information about how the guideline was developed is on the guideline’s page on the NICE website. This includes the full evidence review, details of the committee and any declarations of interest.

ABSTRACT Background: Aim of the study was to assess trend in antibiotics consumption pattern from 2016 to 2019 using AWaRe classification, ATC and Defined daily dose methodology (DDD) in a tertiary care hospital. Antibiotics are crucial for treating infectious diseases and have significantly improved the prognosis of patients with infectious diseases, reducing morbidity and mortality. The aim of the study is to classify the antibiotic based on WHO AWaRe classification and compare their four-year consumption trends. The study was conducted at a tertiary care center, Pilakhuwa, Hapur. Antibiotic procurement data for a period of 4 years (2016-2019) was collected from the Central medical store. Methods: This is a retrospective time series analysis of systemic antibiotics with no intervention at patient level. Antibiotic procurement was taken as proxy for consumption assuming that same has been used.

  • Prophylactic Antibiotic Use in COPD and the Potential Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Antibiotics
    RESPIRATORY CARE Paper in Press. Published on February 20, 2018 as DOI: 10.4187/respcare.05943 Prophylactic Antibiotic Use in COPD and the Potential Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Antibiotics Anthony W Huckle, Lucy C Fairclough MSc PhD, and Ian Todd MA PhD Introduction Do Antibiotics Have a Positive, Therapeutic Effect in Patients With Stable COPD? Azithromycin Erythromycin Clarithromycin Roxithromycin Doxycycline Moxifloxacin If Antibiotics Do Have a Positive, Therapeutic Effect in Patients With COPD, Is This Potentially Anti-Inflammatory in Nature? Effects on Inflammatory Cells Effects on Transcription Factors Effects on Cytokines and Inflammatory Mediators Summary Antibiotics have previously demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties, and they have been linked to therapeutic benefit in several pulmonary conditions that feature inflammation. Previous research suggests that these anti-inflammatory properties may be beneficial in the treatment of COPD. This review assesses the potential benefit of prophylactic, long-term, and low-dose antibiotic therapy in COPD, and whether any effects seen are anti-inflammatory in nature. Randomized, controlled trials comparing antibiotic therapy with placebo in subjects with stable COPD were evaluated. Twelve trials involving 3,784 participants and a range of antibiotics were included: azithromycin (6 studies, 1,972 participants), clarithromycin (1 study, 67 participants), erythromycin (3 studies, 254 participants), roxithromycin (1 study, 191 participants), and moxifloxacin (2 studies, 1,198 participants). In vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo experimental study designs exploring the mechanisms via which antibiotics may act in subjects with stable COPD were evaluated. Azithromycin and eryth- romycin showed the greatest effect in subjects with COPD, with evidence suggesting improvement in exacerbation-related outcomes and health status, as measured by the St George Respiratory Questionnaire.
