This report presents analyses of data on antimicrobial medicines consumption collected for the period 2014–2018 from non-European Union countries/areas in the WHO European Region. The analyses incorporate the substantial changes to defined daily doses introduced in January 2019 and revisions to the WHO Access, Watch and Reserve (AWaRe) classification in 2019. The report includes analyses of trends over time for key metrics of antibiotic consumption and considers new metrics to inform the responsible use of antibiotics. The WHO Regional Office for Europe and its partners remain committed to supporting countries/ areas in these endeavours through the activities of the WHO Europe Antimicrobial Medicines Consumption Network.
