Each year about 400 million people seek medical care with suspected Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs).
Empirical treatment is often considered the first choice for uncomplicated UTIs and sees around 10% of all women aged 18 or over receive a prescription for antibiotics each year. Up to 60% of uncomplicated UTIs diagnoses have negative urine culture, resulting in frequent misuse of antibiotics.
reducing overconsumption
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a growing threat to healthcare as we know it today, fuelled by the overconsumption of antibiotics. The World Health Organization calls AMR the “silent pandemic” and projects the global death tool to reach 10 and even 39 million by 2050, equal to cancer. The EU has set a goal to reduce consumption of antibiotics by 20% before 2030.
