As described in this protocol, pharmacists play prominent roles in
antimicrobial stewardship programme and must be able to work collectively
with other healthcare professionals in the multidisciplinary antimicrobial
stewardship team. To contribute effectively, pharmacists should equip
themselves with knowledge in antimicrobial pharmacotherapy, as well as soft
skills.
I believe this protocol will benefit all healthcare professionals in
implementing antimicrobial stewardship programme at their facilities and
subsequently improve the quality of antimicrobial utilisation.
Last but not least, I would like to thank the secretariat, contributors and
reviewers for their hard work in reviewing and updating this protocol.
