A new treatment to fight anthrax has gotten approval from the Food and Drug Administration.

Anthim can now be used to treat patients who inhale the bacteria that causes anthrax.

Anthrax is an infectious disease that can quickly lead to death if not treated immediately.

It's on the radar of health officials because it's seen as a likely weapon for biological terrorism.

Anthrax can come in many forms, making it possible to put in food or to release it into the air.
