Leaflet on antibiotics for medicines week

A new Royal Pharmaceutical Society leaflet, “Ask about antibiotics”, offers the public advice on antibiotics and encourages them to visit a pharmacist or GP for expert advice.

The leaflet supports activities during Ask About Medicines Week (1 to 6 November). Pharmacists are encouraged to get involved in the week to promote their role in advising the public about their medicines.

The leaflet is available from the Society’s website or by e-mail from the public relations unit by sending name, registration number and delivery address to pr@rpsgb.org. The Society will also promote it through the national and local news media with the support of branch public relations officers.
