Reading an antibiogram, however simple it may appear at first glance, is full of sometimes implicit but valuable information in the daily practice of the physician. A more subtle reading requires knowledge in the microbiology and pharmacology fields, even more so in the presence of resistant bacteria. The aim of this article is to provide the clinician with some keys to read and understand an antibiogram in the current context.
