The goal of this document is to provide veterinarians with best practices for designing, implementing, and monitoring antimicrobial stewardship programs with their clients. These best practices are aimed at veterinarians who administer antimicrobials, who are responsible for oversight of drug use or treatment protocols, or who make recommendations for use of antimicrobials, including private practitioners, consultants, extension veterinarians, animal health product sales and technical service personnel, and other veterinarians involved in beef or dairy operations.
