摘要

广谱抗生素的使用与抗菌素耐药性（AMR）水平的上升有关。广谱药物的使用，尤其是头孢菌素类、喹诺酮类和联合阿莫西林类药物的使用，是导致 AMR 上升的主要原因。我们利用英国抗生素的总体销售数据来估算结构性需求模型并揭示药物替代模式。然后，我们模拟了替代税收方案，以评估将需求从广谱药物转向窄谱药物的效果。我们的估算结果表明，这些政策在需求管理方面非常有效，而且在消费者和生产者剩余的变化方面成本相对较低。

Antibacterial resistance and the cost of affecting demand: The case of UK antibiotics

Consumption of broad-spectrum antibiotics is associated with rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR) levels. The use of broad-spectrum drugs, particularly of cephalosporins, quinolones, and co-amoxiclav contributes the most to the rise in AMR. We use aggregate sales data on antibiotics from the UK to estimate structural demand models and reveal drug substitution patterns. We then simulate alternative tax schemes to evaluate the effectiveness of shifting demand from broad- to narrow-spectrum drugs. Our estimates suggest that these policies can be highly effective in demand management and come at a relatively low cost regarding changes in consumer and producer surplus.

期刊介绍： The IJIO is an international venture that aims at full coverage of theoretical and empirical questions in industrial organization. This includes classic questions of strategic behavior and market structure. The journal also seeks to publish articles dealing with technological change, internal organization of firms, regulation, antitrust and productivity analysis. We recognize the need to allow for diversity of perspectives and research styles in industrial organization and we encourage submissions in theoretical work, empirical work, and case studies. The journal will also occasionally publish symposia on topical issues.
