The indirect impacts of routine azithromycin prophylaxis during labour on antimicrobial resistance in low-income and middle-income countries: a population-level modelling analysis

2025-09-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Synopsis</h4> We aimed to determine the potential population-level impact on antibiotic resistance of a universally adopted policy of azithromycin prophylaxis for pregnant women in labour planning a vaginal birth. We developed three mathematical models with increasing levels of complexity to represent the population processes through which increased use of antibiotics resulting from the policy affects antibio...
