Antimicrobial Resistance: A Growing Challenge Across Companion Animal and Livestock Practice

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become one of the most significant challenges facing veterinary medicine, impacting both companion animal and livestock health. The emergence and spread of resistant microorganisms can compromise treatment effectiveness, increase disease burden, and pose broader public health concerns. This webinar provides a practical overview of antimicrobial resistance, including its causes, mechanisms, risk factors, and clinical implications. The session discusses responsible antimicrobial use, antimicrobial stewardship, diagnostic-guided therapy, infection prevention strategies, and the role of veterinarians in mitigating resistance. Participants will gain valuable insights into preserving antimicrobial efficacy while supporting animal health, welfare, and sustainable veterinary practice.
