Antibiotics are designed to fight bacterial infections - they
have no effect on viruses or inflammation.
Using antibiotics when they’re not needed can contribute
to antimicrobial resistance, making future infections harder
to treat.
Your vet will carefully assess whether antibiotics are
necessary. If the illness is viral, other treatments may be
more appropriate

Stopping a course of antibiotics early - even if your pet
seems better - can allow antibiotic-resistant bacteria to
survive and multiply.
These resistant bacteria are harder to treat. ��
✅ Follow your vet’s instructions
✅ Complete the full course, even if symptoms improve
✅ Never save or share leftover antibiotics (you can return
them to us for safe disposal)

World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week 18 - 24 November

�� World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week ��
Antibiotics are powerful tools - but when used incorrectly, bacteria can become
resistant, meaning infections become more challenging to treat. Antibiotic
resistant bacteria are an increasing problem worldwide, affecting both human
and animal health.
Stay tuned for our upcoming posts. Throughout this week, we’ll share some
important insights into antimicrobial resistance; what it is, why it matters, and
how we can all help to protect the effectiveness of antibiotics.

Did you know? Antibiotics are not always the answer!
Your vet will assess your pet's condition and recommend the most effective treatment.
In some cases, such as cat bite abscesses, kennel cough, acute diarrhoea, and cat flu, antibiotics are often not necessary. This is positive news and means your pet's condition is unlikely to respond to antibiotics.

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has launched a survey to gain insight into how UK pet owners use and dispose of flea and tick spot-on treatments, as part of its commitment to evidence-based policy making on Pharmaceuticals in the Environment (PiE).

Parasiticides are an essential component of small animal veterinary practice, providing protection against parasitic infestations, safeguarding animal welfare, and reducing the risk of zoonotic disease transmission. However, recent evidence from multiple sources indicates that some small animal parasiticides, including topical products, can contaminate the environment, in particular waterways, with potential adverse effects on wildlife and ecosystems.

This research supports the VMD’s broader efforts to minimise the environmental impact of veterinary medicines and delivers against the commitments laid out in the UK cross-government Pharmaceuticals in the Environment roadmap. The findings will help build the evidence base for future guidance and policies that balance animal welfare, human health, and environmental protection.

The survey is available here: https://defragroup.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_00catP20l9m5dVI Further information: VMD launches survey to understand how pet owners use flea and tick spot-on treatments

Closing date of 1st January 2026.
