THE "One Health" approach, which recognises that the health of humans, animals and ecosystems are interconnected, should be applied to measures to control antimicrobial resistance (AMR), the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) has said in an updated Statement of Policy issued this week.
The policy makes a number of new recommendations to governments and pharmacists, seeking demonstrations of "political will" to address the issues.
FIP said the new statement reflected developments since its last statement on this topic in 2008.
