Antibiotic Use Guidelines

University of Washington Center for Stewardship in Medicine (UW CSiM) Antibiotic Guide

UW CSiM has created this Antibiotic Guide to provide prescribers with a tool to guide prescribing based on local resistance data and expert opinion. Specific antibiotic recommendations are based upon bacterial resistance patterns seen in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Antibiotics listed should be compared to local bacterial resistance trends found in your antibiogram to determine applicability.
