Antibiotic Use and Resistance Pattern in Ethiopia: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Conclusion and Recommendations: Inappropriate antibiotic use is a huge problem in Ethiopia, and many bacteria were resistant to commonly used antibiotics and similarly, multidrug-resistant bacterial strains are numerous. Appropriate antibiotic use should be ensured by prohibiting over-the-counter sale of antibiotics and strengthening antimicrobial stewardship. PMID: 31467550 [PubMed]
