As veterinarians, our prescribing rights come with significant responsibilities. Veterinarians can help minimise the spread of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) by: 

1.      Pausing and considering each antimicrobial prescription.

2.      Talking to clients about ways to minimise the use of antimicrobials.

3.      Promoting and applying best practice biosecurity and hygiene measures.
