This application has been developed by the Department of Medicine, AIIMS New Delhi, with inputs from various surgical and medical disciplines at the institute. The antibiotic policy has been developed based on the hospital antibiogram and available recent literature. Also, this policy has been developed keeping the adult population in mind and should not be extrapolated to the paediatric age group. User discretion is advised when following this policy document, as antibiotic choice should be guided by the local antibiogram.

This is the first such initiative from the Department of Medicine at AIIMS. We expect users to provide us with constructive feedback in order to help us in regularly updating the content as well as to make it error-free.
