Antimicrobial resistance is rising quietly, yet its impact touches every home, every hospital, and every patient. When antibiotics stop working, even common infections become harder to treat, making prevention and awareness more important than ever.
Dr. Savitri explains that resistance does not develop overnight. It grows when antibiotics are misused, overused, or consumed without proper guidance. Each unnecessary dose reduces the power of medicines, that were once lifesaving.
Awareness is the first step to protection. Using antibiotics only when prescribed, completing full courses, avoiding self-medication, and choosing timely lab tests help safeguard our future against resistant infections.
Small choices today shape the strength of tomorrow’s treatments.
