Multidrug-resistant organisms are bacteria that have developed resistance to several types of antibiotics. They are also called 'superbugs.' Misuse and overuse of antibiotics are the main cause, and infection with them can be very hard to treat. Please take antibiotics only as prescribed by a doctor and for the prescribed length of time. If you have questions about antibiotic use, please consult your doctor.2026-06-26
