Objective To investigate the status of antibiotic drug use in the outpatient department based on the special rectification activities of antibiotic drugs, identify the reasons for irrational use of antibiotic agents and propose the solutions. Methods Prescription of antibiotic drugs were analyzed by a retrospective comparative analysis during April to June 2011, August to October 2011 and August to October 2012. Results Prescriptions of antibiotic drugs were 435 (36.25%), 367 (30.58%) and 223 (18.58%) during April to June 2011, August to October 2011 and August to October 2012, respectively, and the unreasonable prescriptions were 35 (2.92%), 27 (2.25%), and 14 (1.25%) respectively. Conclusion There is a decreased tendency of prescription of antibiotic drugs in the outpatient department of our hospital because of the special rectification activities of antibiotic drugs. It is in accordance with antibiotic use rate of <20% target of "antibiotics in 2012 special rectification program" in hospital outpatient service. But there are some unreasonable phenomena in the use of antibiotics, and to promote the reasonable use of antibiotics, we should strengthen management.
