En las presentes directrices se hacen recomendaciones y declaraciones sobre prácticas óptimas basadas en evidencias acerca del uso de antimicrobianos de importancia médica en animales destinados a la producción de alimentos, tomando como base la Lista OMS de AIC. El objetivo principal de las directrices es contribuir a preservar la eficacia de los antimicrobianos de importancia médica, y en particular de aquellos que se consideran de importancia crítica para la medicina humana, y contribuir también a preservar la eficacia de los antimicrobianos en la medicina veterinaria, todo ello en apoyo directo del Plan de acción mundial de la OMS sobre la resistencia a los antimicrobianos.
