Abstract

Aim of Study: The study included prospects for using autogenous immunobiological drugs as an alternative to antimicrobials. Materials and Methods: For the analysis databases of WHO–World Health Organization, WOHA–World Organization for Animal Health, FAO–Food and Agricultural Organization, CDC–Center for Control and of disease prevention in the USA, ECDC– European Center for Disease Control and Prevention, EFSA–European Food Safety Authority, as well as informational Internet resources of scientific journals, normative legal acts of Ukraine. The Results: According to the results of the conducted analysis, the global spread of microorganisms resistant to the action of antimicrobial drugs was established, which jeopardizes the possibility of effective treatment of infectious diseases. In Ukraine, as in other developed countries of the world, strict regulation of the circulation of antimicrobials has been adopted at the legislative level, which inevitably leads to the limitation of their use. International experience shows that restrictions on the use of antimicrobial agents should be compensated by measures aimed at increasing the level of biosafety. The use of autogenous immunobiological drugs for the specific prevention of infectious diseases of bacterial etiology can be a reasonable alternative to antibiotics in veterinary medicine. Conclusions: The introduction of new rules for the circulation of veterinary antimicrobial drugs will significantly affect the level of use of antimicrobial drugs. A reasonable alternative to antimicrobial agents is the use of autogenous immunobiological agents.
