European Antibiotic Awareness Day – Overuse of antibiotics is becoming a serious threat to public safety
The Bella Moss Foundation is heading a campaign to raise awareness of the overuse of antibiotics in pets, which is leading to a significant rise in cases of MRSA in owners. Owners aren’t aware that MRSA can be transmitted by pets, and too many vets prescribe antibiotics without careful consideration.
This needs to change.
The European Commission has released a 12-point plan to regulate the use of antibiotics. The BVA is generally supportive of the plan, though BVA President Carl Padgett has warned “regulations must not impede the ability of veterinary surgeons to prescribe and dispense medicines according to their clinical judgement.”
Send feedback and suggestions to themosses@btinternet.com. Your comments could be published in the Veterinary Times!
There is a lot of information to help both you as a vet and owners:
The Bella Moss Foundation is one of the only charities that helps owners and pets suffering from MRSA – and is a great source of information for owners
The BVA provides support material and posters to alert owners to the risk of MRSA
The European Commission supports a number of projects across Europe designed to tackle the issue
