🦠 Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR): A Growing Threat – Let’s Act Together! 💊

Did you know that antibiotics and other antimicrobial medicines can lose their effectiveness if not used properly? This is called antimicrobial resistance (AMR) — and it’s becoming a serious global health concern.

⚠️ What causes AMR?

Using antibiotics when they’re not needed (like for colds or flu)

Not finishing your full course of treatment

Sharing or reusing leftover medication

Incorrect dosing or self-medication

💡 Why does it matter? When medicines stop working, infections become harder to treat, leading to longer illness, higher medical costs, and increased risk of complications.

✅ How can you help prevent AMR?

Only use antibiotics when prescribed by a healthcare professional

Always complete your full course of treatment

Never share your medication with others

Practice good hygiene to prevent infections

At Betta Healthcare Pharmacy, we’re here to guide you on the safe and effective use of medicines. Let’s work together to protect the power of antibiotics for future generations.
