    Compliance with good prescribing practices is crucial for public health, as its application prevents negative consequences for patient health. Likewise, the characterization of antibiotics is a necessity for proper registration and control. The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics and the level of compliance with good prescribing practices for antibiotic prescriptions filled at Boticas Perú in San Juan de Miraflores, Lima, in 2021. Methodology: A quantitative, observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional approach was used. The technique was observation, and the instrument was a data collection form applied to a sample of 364 prescriptions. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics of central tendency and presented in tables and figures. Results: The results indicate a higher prescription rate for antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin (19%), amoxicillin (17%), and azithromycin (10%). The most common route of administration was oral (74%), followed by parenteral (14%), and topical (12%). A higher percentage of potential adverse effects were of Type A (89%) compared to Type B (11%). Furthermore, there was a high compliance level (79%) for medication data, a medium compliance level (72.3%) for prescriber data, and a low compliance level (43.3%) for patient data. Conclusion: The level of compliance with good prescribing practices for antibiotics showed an overall medium level (64.9%), and a large percentage of prescriptions contained antibiotics.
