=== Dose: Defined Daily Doses for animal medication statistics (DDDvet, mg/kg/jour), VERSION OF THE GLOSSARIUM ===
This is an acronym for the "Defined Daily Dose for animals". The amount of antimicrobials given during a treatment (dose) will vary depending on the antimicrobial, how the antimicrobial is given (e.g. by injection, through water or feed) and the population treated (cattle, chickens, pigs). CIPARS uses this metric to adjust for this variation and help interpret antimicrobial use data.[[https://cdpq02.ca/DOMglossarium/docs/glossairePICRA2019en.pdf | CIPARS (2019)]]
