Antibiotic Action is a direct outcome of The Urgent Need Initiative. There are serious concerns regarding the future effectiveness of currently available antibiotics and the lack of antibiotic agents in the drug pipeline.

Antibiotic Action is the forum through which we will call all parties – UK government, medical, industry and charities – to identify and implement solutions within the research, regulation and economic markets to stimulate and regenerate interest in the discovery and development of antibiotic agents of the future.
