Anti Infectives

AMR occurs when pathogens change and find ways to resist the effects of antibiotics.

Vaccines and other preventative measures can help stop infections from occurring in the first place.

Antimicrobial stewardship practices help to reduce the spread of AMR by applying greater oversight of appropriate antibiotic usage.

Surveillance refers to monitoring patterns of resistance to anti-infectives and is a vital tool in the fight against AMR by allowing the early detection of resistance.
