The cornerstone of antimicrobial stewardship is the correct use of antimicrobial agents. In order to use antimicrobial agents correctly, clinicians must be familiar with the drugs themselves, including their spectrum activity, mechanisms of action, adverse effect profile, and major drug interactions. Additionally, multiple new agents have been brought to the market in recent years, and clinicians must be aware of where these new agents fit into clinical practice.
