Antibiotics are therapies used in cases of infection. Inappropriate use of antibiotics will cause the impact of resistance. Antibiotic use studies need to be done as a step to reduce this impact. The purpose of this study was to determine the practice of using antibiotics by measuring the quantity using the Defined Daily Dose (DDD) and DU90% method in inpatients with a diagnosis of Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) at PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital. This study is a retrospective study on inpatients of PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital in 2016-2018. Data was obtained from patient medical records. The results showed a change in the pattern of antibiotic used in 2016-2018. Ceftriaxone and ceftazidime are the most widely used antibiotics. Ceftriaxone with a DDD value of 12.59; 22.49; 23.53 / 100 bed-days and ceftazidime with a DDD value of 17.09; 12.98; 10.59 / 100 bed-days. Antibiotics that are included in DU 90% are Ceftriaxone, Ceftazidime, Cefixime and Levofloxacine. The conclusion of this study is that there is a change in the pattern of antibiotic use in cases of Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) in 2016-2018.
