Management of hordeolum in some cases which are more serious performed with topical antibiotics for gram-positive bacteria. Many doctors do not pay attention to the rationality of antibiotics. This study showed the incidence of irrational use of antibiotics which later can lead to resistance to antibiotics usage in hordeolum management at the department of Ophthalmology RSUP Dr. Kariadi.

Result: Of the 37 hordeolum patient records, the accurate indication of antibiotics was 21.6%. The accuracy of antibiotics types in hordeolum patients is 0%. The accuracy of antibiotics duration was 100%. The accuracy of dose and frequency of antibiotics is 100%. Accuracy route of administration of antibiotics is 100%. Conclusion: The study of rationality of antibiotic usage in 37 hordeolum patient’s medical records at the department of Ohpthalmology RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang in 2010 100% irrational caused by inaccurate indications and types of antibiotics.
