Research highlights the need for prudent use of Antibiotics to reduce Adverse Events
A new study published by researchers from John Hopkins University School of Medicine underscores the importance of prudent antibiotic prescribing to reduce the harm that can result from antibiotic-associated adverse drug events (ADEs).
See how new, rapid and reliable point of care technologies and tests can help you make prudent decisions around the use of antibiotics.
