Linda Huibers et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the variation in antibiotic prescribing rates among general practitioners in out-of-hours primary care. The study found that factors such as GPs' activity level and familiarity with OOH care explained only a small portion of this variation. Future research should focus on identifying additional factors that contribute to the antibiotic prescribing variation seen among GPs.

Non-Clinical Factors Determining the Prescription of Antibiotics by Veterinarians: A Systematic Review

Miguel Servia-Dopazo et al.

Summary: The prescription of antibiotics by veterinarians is influenced by factors such as fear, self-confidence, business factors, complacency, lack of owner awareness, and demand for antibiotics. Non-clinical factors appear to be modifiable and may be useful for interventions aimed at improving antibiotic use in animals to reduce the global spread of multi-resistant strains.

Pet Owners and Antibiotics: Knowledge, Opinions, Expectations, and Communication Preferences

Ri Scarborough et al.

Summary: Despite the importance of antimicrobial use in companion animals in combating antimicrobial resistance, few studies have quantified pet owner factors that can affect veterinary antimicrobial use. A survey found that most pet owners were satisfied with their veterinarian's antibiotic prescribing decisions and prioritized effective treatment for their pets. Owners recognized the limitations and risks of antibiotic therapy, but many believed the risks were limited to their treated animal and were unaware of inter-species transfer of bacteria.
