A three years antimicrobials consumption in Ethiopia from 2017 to 2019: A cross- sectional study.

Thus, monitoring antimicrobial consumption at national level is crucial to prevent and contain AMR. Nevertheless, there is no well-established system for recording and reporting of antimicrobial consumption in Ethiopia.
