World Antibiotic Awareness Week: Antibiotics are precious resources that only work against bacterial infections, not viruses like colds and flu. Overusing or misusing antibiotics leads to antibiotic resistance - one of the biggest threats to global health. Use them wisely! Book an appointment with your GP when you're unwell. Your GP will determine if antibiotics are needed or if your infection will resolve naturally. Always complete the full course prescribed, and never share or save antibiotics.
