Estimates of antibiotic availability from a number of countries throughout the world were developed as an indicator of potential patterns of human antibiotic use. Data were organized by major classes of antibiotics and by some individual products and converted to units of weight and defined daily dosages per 1,000 population per day. Estimates were based either on sales or on production and trade data, including global production of penicillins, cephalosporins, tetracyclines, and erythromycins. The data obtained showed that antibiotic availability can vary widely among countries as well as from year to year in the same country.
对世界上许多国家的抗生素可获得性进行了估算，以此作为人类抗生素使用潜在模式的一个指标。数据按主要抗生素类别以及一些个别产品进行整理，并换算为重量单位以及每千人口每天的限定日剂量。估算依据的是销售数据或生产与贸易数据，包括青霉素、头孢菌素、四环素和红霉素的全球产量。所获得的数据表明，抗生素可获得性在不同国家之间以及在同一个国家的不同年份之间可能有很大差异。
