[edit]I grabbed some interesting looking Cochrane reviews on this subject. These all discuss the therapy for specific problems. I am unable to find a source which describes the theory or history of the practice in general.

Requested move
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: consensus to move the page to Antibiotic prophylaxis, per the discussion below. Dekimasuよ! 23:42, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
Antimicrobial prophylaxis → Antibiotic prophylaxis – It is better to say "antibiotic" than "antimicrobial" considering how this term is used here and in other Wikipedia articles. Sources usually say "antibiotic" also. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:22, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
- Comment There is a previous discussion about this at Talk:Antibiotics#This_article_should_be_named_.22Antibiotics.22. I just cited some typical medical literature in the section above which uses both terms, but more often "antibiotic". There is a distinction between the two terms, and there could be two articles for the distinct concepts, but right now we only have enough content to talk about this generally, so "antibiotic" is the better term. Most other Wikipedia articles are using the term "antibiotic prophylaxis", so this main article should align with them. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:25, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
- Support Seems to be in accord with more common usage in general and at Wikipedia. --MelanieN (talk) 21:42, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
- Support per WP:COMMONNAME. --Tom (LT) (talk) 01:34, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
