How To Ensure You’Re Not Becoming Resistant To Antibiotics

Antibiotic resistance is a critical global health issue, as bacteria evolve to withstand antibiotics, making infections harder to treat and increasing health risks. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics in humans and animals are primary causes, leading to the spread of resistant bacteria. Experts emphasize the need for responsible antibiotic use, improved infection prevention, vaccination, and global policies to manage antibiotic use. Efforts are also underway to develop alternative treatments, but without public awareness and coordinated action, antibiotic resistance could make common medical procedures risky and lead to severe health consequences, especially for vulnerable populations.
