World Antibiotic Awareness Week 2017

World Antibiotic Awareness Week is on this 13 – 19 November and we need your help to raise awareness.

Antibiotics were the first wonder drugs. Before antibiotics, infection was a leading cause of death. Today, we risk losing the effectiveness of antibiotics because of unnecessary prescriptions and unnecessary consumption.

The most important thing to know is that the problem belongs to everyone.
Together, we can fight antibiotic resistance and preserve the power of these medicines.
