Zusammenfassung englisch
Due to the decades of use of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine, more and more antibiotic resistant pathogenic bacteria are appearing in everyday clinical practice and in animal husbandry. Antibiotic residues from human and animal excretions can be detected in various environmental matrices. The environment is a reservoir and acts as a vector for antibiotic resistance genes. National and international programs, such as the "One Health Action Plan", intend to develop actions to combat the development and spread of antibiotic resistance. One of the most promising measures is the reduction of antibiotic quantities dispensed. In Germany, in the veterinary sector annual volume was reduced by 1,000 t (58%) between 2011 and 2017. Based on the total volume for 2017, the veterinary proportion was only a little more than half, in Austria and Switzerland even only around 40%. In order to further reduce the antibiotic quantities dispensed, actions in human medicine should also be intensified in the future. Improved health prevention and further targeted training and communication programs for medical personnel and the public would be suitable actions to reduce the amount in human medicine and thus the entry of antibiotics into the environment. © 2020 Mediengruppe Oberfranken - Fachverlage GmbH & Co.
