    <abstract locale="en_US">The Islamic Republic of Iran provided a national action plan against antimicrobial resistance (NAP/AMR) for 2016-2021. In this study, we have dealt with the background and Iran&#x2019;s efforts in this way, compare Iran&#x2019;s NAP/AMR with other international programs, represent efficient policy options, and the evaluation indicators of each purpose of Iran NAP/AMR. The indicators of each group are represented through the consensus of three academic researchers.&#xA0;&#xA0;&#xA0;
&#xD;

Finally, our assessment reveals that performing a constant observation is highly required for a prearranged NAP/AMR. The political parties and stakeholders should punctually receive interpretable feedbacks; also, it is very important to conduct periodical assessments with the purpose of perceiving the purpose feasibility and determining the dimensions that require advancements.</abstract>
