Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a threat to
global health and development and it contributes to millions of deaths
worldwide each year. Inappropriate use and overuse of antibiotics are driving
an increase in AMR and have a detrimental impact on the effectiveness of these
critical medicines.
The WHO AWaRe (Access, Watch,
Reserve) antibiotic book provides concise, evidence-based guidance on the
choice of antibiotic, dose, route of administration, and duration of treatment
for more than 30 of the most common clinical infections in children and adults
in both primary health care and hospital settings. The Indonesian language
translation is supported by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
