Antibiotics are most abundantly used drugs of major global concern for rapid ongoing emergence of resistant strains, increase overall cost of treatment and impact on national economy. Optimized use of antibiotic on the basis of proper diagnosis, prescriber’s attention about the problem and antimicrobial stewardship programs may become a way to rationalize the use. Methods. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study done in patients visiting to various OPD of tertiary referral hospital. Prescriptions were randomly selected and Antibiotics utilization was assessed by WHO prescribing Indicator form. Prescribed drugs were checked for adherence to guidelines and essential medicine list. Results. Among 731 sampled prescriptions, 384 (52.53%) were found with at least one antibiotic; 214 prescriptions (55.72%) were of female patients. Mean age was 37.71 years with SD 25.01. Highest numbers of patients (21.09%) belong to the 15-29 age group. Highest number of patients 158 (41.15%) treated with antibiotics were seen in patient attending Medicine department, 30 antibiotics were prescribed for 577 times.
