If your child is prescribed antibiotics, make sure they complete the full course.

And always follow your doctor’s advice – unnecessary use fuels antibiotic resistance, making them less effective for the future. https://t.co/jNACiQocli

Simple actions can help to reduce infections, and if we follow good practices, we can keep them working. 🦸‍♂️ #WAAW
