Lunch & Learn | Bacterial Battles: Optimising Antibacterial Therapy

The 2026 Lunch & Learn series will consist of four weekly 30-minute lunchtime webinars focusing on key medication groups in podiatric practice. Each session will include at least one case study and provide practical guidance on indications, contraindications, and treatment considerations when prescribing each category of medication. Sessions will be led by a pharmacist, with a Medicines in Podiatry Special Interest Group member presenting case studies.

Topics:
Anti-inflammatories
Pain Medications
Antimycotics
Antibacterials

What we will cover:

  1. Safe and effective medication use in podiatric management.
  2. Case-based discussion to apply knowledge in clinical scenarios.
  3. Practical strategies for podiatrists to improve patient care through evidence-based prescribing.

Join us for the fourth and final webinar on the topic of Bacterial Battles: Optimising Antibacterial Therapy.
