Objective: To determine the main antibiotics for broiler chicken, recommended by farming centers from the Municipality of Pasto, Department of Nariño, Colombia. Methods and Materials: The information was gathered through surveys with the people in charge of prescribing medicines in the farming centers. The data was analyzed with the help of the statistical platform Statgraphics Plus 5.0. Results: Only 37.65% of the farming stores have the qualified staff to perform the duty of prescribing veterinary medicine. Antibiotics are the most recommended medicine in farming stores (52.94%), particularly quinolones (39.98%), followed by the immune group or vaccines (18.82%), mainly the Newcastle vaccine strain Hitchner B1 (8.24%), the group of vitamins (14.11%), anti-parasitic (12.94%) and the group of mucus regulators (1.17%). Conclusions: Most of the farming stores do not have the qualified staff for the formulation or prescription of medicine. 51% of these medicines are handled outside the therapeutic range (overdose or underdose). The most recommended therapeutic use is for the treatment of digestive and respiratory diseases, and oral administration of medicine is the most commonly suggested without any kind of warnings or cautions.
