AMR bacteria flow among humans and animals and actions for fighting the problem must take into account both sectors. Antimicrobial usage (AMU) is one of the potential drivers for AMR. In the animal sector, many national and supra-national authorities (e.g. the European Medicines Agency) have established AMU monitoring programs, most of them being based on sales data of antimicrobials for veterinary use. While providing very valuable information, these data also have limitations and make it difficult to identify by whom, when and how the antimicrobial products were actually used. Different central aspects of AMU monitoring remain to be solved, including, among others: full coverage of both companion and food animal, use of appropriate methods for collection of information at the animal and farm levels and choice of metrics of measurement of AMU and animal populations at risk.Antimicrobial Usage in Companion and Food AnimalsMedicinebicsscVeterinary medicinebicsscantibiotic usemetricslivestockpetsmonitoringsurveillanceMedicineVeterinary medicineÁngel Moreno Migueledt1286213Collineau LucieedtAnne Carson CaroleeedtÁngel Moreno MiguelothCollineau LucieothAnne Carson CaroleeothBOOK9910557255803321Antimicrobial Usage in Companion and Food Animals: Methods, Surveys and Relationships with Antimicrobial Resistance in Animals and Humans3019781UNINA
