First seen Mar 01, 2026 · Last updated Jun 18, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study looks at whether giving family doctors and nurse practitioners a confidential report of their own antibiotic prescribing habits can reduce unnecessary antibiotic use. About 7,600 healthcare providers in British Columbia will be randomly assigned to receive the feedback early or after a delay. The goal is to fight antibiotic resistance by cutting down on prescriptions for conditions like colds and bronchitis where antibiotics often don't help.
