The use of antibiotics during pregnancy: A cross-sectional study of knowledge, attitude, and practices among antenatal care attendees in Northern Ghana.

We concluded that higher education level, monthly income, good practice, and good knowledge were significantly associated with a reduced likelihood of self-medication with antibiotics. A well-structured education that could be easily accepted and understood by pregnant women on the risks of antibiotic self-medication should be included in the routine education at the antenatal clinics.
