Summary

This study tests whether a two-part approach—improving communication about viral infections and having pharmacists double-check prescription lengths—can reduce how many days antibiotics are prescribed for respiratory infections like bronchitis, sinusitis, and sore throat. About 4,500 patients from six primary care practices in France will take part. The goal is to fight antibiotic resistance by cutting unnecessary or overly long antibiotic use.
