摘要

Recent antibiotic use is a risk factor for infection or col-onization with resistant bacterial pathogens. Demand forantibiotics can be affected by consumers' knowledge, atti-tudes, and practices. In 1998–1999, the FoodborneDiseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet) conduct-ed a population-based, random-digit dialing telephone sur-vey, including questions regarding respondents' knowl-edge, attitudes, and practices of antibiotic use. Twelve per-cent had recently taken antibiotics; 27% believed that tak-ing antibiotics when they had a cold made them bettermore quickly, 32% believed that taking antibiotics whenthey had a cold prevented more serious illness, and 48%expected a prescription for antibiotics when they were illenough from a cold to seek medical attention. These mis-guided beliefs and expectations were associated with alack of awareness of the dangers of antibiotic use; 58% ofpatients were not aware of the possible health dangers.National educational efforts are needed to address theseissues if patient demand for antibiotics is to be reduced
