A survey on knowledge, attitude, and practice about antibiotic prescribing and resistance among medical practitioners in Kenya [version 1; peer review: 3 approved with reservations, 1 not approved]. AAS Open Res 2022, 5:3 (https://doi.org/10.12688/aasopenres.13328.1)(https://doi.org/10.12688/aasopenres.13328.1)https://erepository.mku.ac.ke/handle/123456789/5838Antibiotic resistance is a growing global health threat worldwide and especially in developing countries. Irrational antibiotic prescription as well as lack of the requisite knowledge and awareness of proper antibiotic use are major drivers of antibiotic resistance. In Kenya, although the Ministry of Health has developed antibiotic use guidelines, these guidelines are not widely followed. Antibiotic prescription is, therefore, hugely at the discretion of the clinician. It is thus necessary to understand the knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) of antibiotic prescription among medical practitioners in the country. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) among antibiotic prescribers in three counties (Kiambu, Nakuru, and Bungoma) in KenyaenknowledgeattitudeAntimicrobial resistanceA survey on knowledge, attitude, and practice about antibiotic prescribing and resistance among medical practitioners in KenyaArticle
