Association between Physician Intensity of Antibiotic Prescribing and the Prescription of Benzodiazepines, Opioids and Proton-Pump Inhibitors to Nursing Home Residents: a Population-Based Observational Study
2019
Background
Prescribing patterns for episodic medications, such as antibiotics, might make useful surrogate measures of a physician’s overall prescribing practice because use is common, and variation exists across prescribers. However, the extent to which a physician’s current antibiotic prescribing practices are associated with the rate of prescription of other potentially harmful medications remains unknown.
