In this episode, Anthony and Ian discuss the antibiotic amnesty taking place in the UK, emphasizing the importance of returning unused antibiotics to veterinary practices for proper disposal. They explore the environmental and public health implications of antibiotic waste, the need for public engagement, and practical steps for veterinary practices to implement the campaign effectively. The conversation highlights the responsibility of drug manufacturers and
distributors in promoting a circular economy and the significance of measuring the success of the initiative. Ultimately, they call for ongoing awareness and action regarding antibiotic disposal and responsible use.
