This paper addresses the increase in antibiotic prescription during the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences on antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The study arises from concerns about the misuse of antibiotics in patients with COVID-19, which has accelerated the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MR) microorganisms. The main results indicate that, during the pandemic, there was a significant increase in the use of antibiotics such as cephalosporins, quinolones and macrolides, despite the fact that only a small percentage of patients had bacterial infections that justified their use. This increase in prescription, especially in intensive care units, has led to a worrying increase in the rates of colonization and infection by MR, complicating clinical management and raising healthcare costs. The conclusions highlight the urgent need to develop and implement strategies for the rational use of antibiotics. This includes strengthening antimicrobial use optimization programs (PROA), improving infection control measures and promoting research into new antibiotics and therapeutic alternatives. The findings of this study are crucial to guide future public health policies and mitigate the global antimicrobial resistance crisis exacerbated by the pandemic.
