6 Antimicrobial Resistance Threats in Humans in Thailand (Professor Visanu) AMR Bacteria with Urgent Threat Extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing GNRs Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. & P.aeruginosa Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) AMR Bacteria with Serious Threat Drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae Drug-resistant Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter spp. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE) Colistin-resistant GNRs

7 Polymyxins: Colistin An old generation of antimicrobial drugs Bactericidal Bind to LPS and Phospholipids of gram negative bacteria Disruption of bacterial cell membrane Human medicine Treatment of nosocomial infections in critically ill patients due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria Last line treatment of multidrug resistance of gram negative bacteria such as: Veterinary medicine Abundant used in food producing animals especially pig Oral administration for control Enterobacteriaceae infection such as: Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobateriaceae E. Coli and Salmonella spp. 13 July 2013 EMA/755938/2012

11 Colistin mg/pcu Sales of colistin in for use in animals in mg/pcu in 2013 (ESVAC data), including the 5 and 1 mg/pcu levels. No sales reported in Finland, Iceland and Norway. 66% and 93% of reduction respectively. 11 EMA AMR

12 Control measures on the use of Colistin Control the use of colistin at farm Department of Livestock Development (DLD) Proclamation on February 8, 2017 Do not allow for the use of disease prevention (Allow only for treatment!) Selecting appropriate antimicrobial agents for treating infections. Colistin can be used only in the case of without any effective antimicrobial drugs. Report the usage of colistin to local DLD province office Monitor & Sampling feed for the testing of colistin Local official: Schedule & Unscheduled inspection at farm Suspension/Revocation of license of farm veterinarians when cannot act in accordance with this proclamation!

13 Control measures plan for colistin in animal Thai FDA Reclassification of colistin to Prescription-only withdraw the registered combination products of colistin and other antibiotics Label updating (indication, types of animal, withdrawal time, special warning etc. Revision of appropriate dosage form & strengths in line with EU/JAPAN (USA not register colistin for food producing animal)

14 Active Ingredient Animal Species Strengths of the Veterinary Medicinal Products (registered medicated premix) South East Asia countries Premix Concentration Japan (MAFF) European Union (EMEA) Colistin Pig - 40% premixes -1%, 2%, 4% premixes -1%, 2%, 4% premixes Amoxicillin -Pig -Poultry - 50 % premix , 20% premixes High concentration of premix look like active pharmaceutical ingredient which is cheap cost to sell when comparing low concentration of premix It contributes irrational use of drug in feed in Asia and farm mixer does not have capability of mixing it well. They can cause residues and AMR in ASIA higher than other regions of the world

22 National Strategy on AMR ( )

23 Endorsement: By the cabinet on 17 Aug 2016 Vision : Reduction of mortality, morbidity and economic impacts from AMR Mission: Establish policies and national multi-sectoral mechanisms which support effective and sustained AMR management system Consist of 6 strategies Goals 50% reduction in AMR morbidity 20% reduction in antimicrobial use in human 30% reduction in antimicrobial use in animal 20% increase of public knowledge on AMR and awareness of appropriate use of antimicrobials AMR management system meets universally accepted standards 23

24 Thailand s National Strategic Plan on AMR consists of 6 strategies AMR surveillance system using a One-Health approach Regulation of antimicrobial distribution Infection prevention and control and antimicrobial stewardship in human AMR prevention and control and antimicrobial stewardship in agriculture and animals Public knowledge on AMR and awareness of appropriate use of antimicrobials Governance mechanisms to develop and sustain AMR-related actions

25 Integrating Committee on AMR Human Animal& Agriculture Environment The Committee consists of representatives from the Ministry of Public Health and the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives as well as academia, professional societies and civil society organizations
