Antimicrobial-resistant bacterial infection is an important cause of death in Thailand and in
other countries worldwide. Increasing use of antibiotics in both animals and humans is one of
the main drive that increase the incidence of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in human,
animals and environment.
National Action Plan for Combating Antibiotic-resistant Bacteria aimed to have general
population taking antibiotics less than 20% when they have common cold or diarrheal symptoms.
However, there is little accurate information about behaviors of Thai people. Most studies
were conducted in hospitals, clinics or pharmacy. Therefore, it did not include behaviors of
those who had symptoms but did not present at hospitals, clinics or pharmacy.
In this study, the investigators aim to use questionnaire to Thai adult population to ask for
the the amount of antibiotic used and the periods they had symptoms of common cold or
diarrhea over one year period of year 2017. The main aim is to estimate the total antibiotic
usage per human population, and plan for the study in the future.
