Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP) Treatment Options

The appropriate use of antimicrobials—especially antibiotics—is the cornerstone of an antimicrobial stewardship program (ASP). Optimal antimicrobial therapy means prescribing the right antimicrobial regimen to the right patient for the right period of time.
