Why is it important to use antibiotics correctly?

Antibiotics can be important medicines for treating certain bacterial infections. But using them when they are not needed or using them incorrectly can contribute to antibiotic resistance.

Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria change and become less responsive to medicines used to treat them. This can make some infections more difficult to treat.

Responsible antibiotic use helps protect their effectiveness

Malaria can cause symptoms such as:

โ€ข Fever
โ€ข Chills
โ€ข Headache
โ€ข Body aches
โ€ข Weakness or tiredness
โ€ข Other flu-like symptoms

Some of these symptoms can also occur with other illnesses, so symptoms alone cannot always tell you what is causing them.

If you develop symptoms that could be malaria, seek medical assessment rather than assuming it is simply flu or another illness.

Safe care doesn't stop at the clinic. It continues in the choices we make every day.

Living with a non-communicable disease often involves more than a visit to the clinic. Safe care can also include the everyday steps you take to support your health and manage your condition.

Simple habits can include:

๐Ÿฅ— Eat a balanced diet
๐Ÿšถ Stay physically active

Warmer conditions can create favourable environments for mosquitoes to thrive.

While not every mosquito carries disease, some mosquitoes can transmit malaria when infected.

You can help reduce mosquito exposure by:

โ€ข Removing stagnant water around your home
โ€ข Keeping your surroundings clean
โ€ข Using mosquito nets where appropriate
โ€ข Using recommended mosquito repellents
โ€ข Keeping doors and windows protected where possible

A few simple habits can help reduce mosquito exposure for you and your family

There are many misconceptions about asthma inhalers.

Using a prescribed inhaler correctly is an important part of managing asthma, not something to be embarrassed about.

If you have asthma, understanding your medication and knowing what to do when symptoms appear can make a big difference.

Kidney problems may not always cause obvious symptoms early on, which is why looking after your overall health and getting appropriate medical checks matters.

Feeling unusually tired, weak, dizzy or short of breath can sometimes be linked to anaemia.

Iron-deficiency anaemia happens when your body doesn't have enough iron to produce healthy red blood cells. Don't simply assume you're โ€˜just tiredโ€™, persistent symptoms deserve attention.

If tiredness persists, talk to a healthcare professional about getting checked

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)

Burning when urinating, needing to urinate frequently, or lower abdominal discomfort can be signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI). UTIs are common, but leaving symptoms untreated can allow the infection to become more serious. Know the signs and seek medical advice when something doesn't feel right.
