This is the first report on the surveillance of antimicrobial consumption in both humans and animals in Thailand. It provides baseline data in 2017 to monitor the NSP-AMR (2017-2021) goals, which are set at a 20% and 30% reduction of antimicrobial consumption in humans and animals, respectively. This report in veterinary antimicrobials focuses primarily on food-producing animals, excluding consumption in companion animals, for capturing the volume and value of imports and the local manufacture of all medicines including human and veterinary antimicrobials.
