Evaluation of AMR usage supply chain and monitoring in the livestock and poultry sector of Pakistan. Veterinary Sciences (2025). https://doi.org/10.3390/vetsci12030215
Abstract: Irrational use of antimicrobials in humans, livestock, and poultry is often cited as the key driver of the accelerated emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in humans and animals.
