World AMR Awareness Week #WAAWScotland

Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)

Remember, antibiotics don’t work on viruses like the common cold or flu.

Only take antibiotics when prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Always follow your prescriber’s advice for the correct dose and complete the full course, even if you feel better.

Never share antibiotics with others.

Never dispose of unused medications in toilets, sinks, or bins. Return any unused medications to the pharmacy for safe and sustainable disposal.
