Antimicrobial agents continue to account for a significant portion of institutional pharmaceutical expenditures. Pharmacoeconomic analysis is a valuable tool in assessing antibacterial agents for their place in institutional formularies. This article reviews various types of pharmacoeconomic analyses, their respective limitations, and their roles in the antibacterial formulary decision-making process. We also discuss the current state of the antibacterial pharmacoeconomic literature, including the economic impact of antimicrobial resistance.
