[Overprescribing of antibiotics outside the hospital].
Overprescription of antibiotics is evident in the community as well as in hospital, in veterinary practice or in agriculture. This leads to bacterial multiresistance and treatment failures. The limitation of this overprescription will not be obtained unless diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive guidelines are followed particularly in the management of the upper respiratory tract infections.
