AMR

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant global health threat that endangers the people we love and care for. We must preserve these life-saving medicines now and for generations to come.

The AWaRe (Access, Watch, Reserve) antibiotic classification system can be used to guide prescribing decisions and allow each healthcare provider to make the biggest impact on AMR. This system ensures the preservation of critical antibiotics from the Watch and Reserve group, and where antibiotics are required, driving towards the Access group - the antibiotics at the lowest risk of resistance.

Local guidance based on epidemiological data can help us select the best treatment, avoid unnecessary antibiotics, and optimize dosage and duration. If local guidance is not available, the WHO Antibiotic Book contains evidence-based clinical guidance for prescribing antibiotics using the AWaRe classification system. By consistently using the best guidance available, we can improve antibiotic prescribing, reduce antimicrobial resistance, and save millions of lives. I hope you will take a look and share it with others who should see this! firstline.org/who

The health implications of AMR are severe, global, worsening and require immediate action.\nUsing the new @WHO guidance for prescribing antimicrobials on @Firstline is one action that prescribers in every country can take today.\n

AMR

#AMR is an intensifying pandemic, more deadly than Malaria or HIV/AIDS. Play your part, use expert guidance to make the right antibiotic prescribing decisions.

New @WHO AWaRe antibiotic guidance is available on mobile on @Firstline. firstline.org/who

The wait is finally over! For the first time, the WHO has created evidence-based clinical guidance for prescribing antibiotics - the AWaRe Antibiotic Book. The guidance is now available on Firstline, open access in all countries. Institutional guidelines are still preferred as they include local factors such as resistance patterns and formulary. However, this is a great complementary tool to fill in potential gaps in existing guidance. If widely used, this new resource can improve antibiotic prescribing, reduce antimicrobial resistance, and save millions of lives. I hope you will take a look and share with others who should see this! firstline.org/who
