If these are standard dual handle compression faucets, turn off the water, remove the handles and valve retaining caps and valves, take the valves to a store and replace the washers on the ends of the valve stems, and o-rings on the valves, if they have them.
Check the valve seats (that the washers seal against) in the faucet body by flashlight and fingertip for corrosion while you have the valves out, and replace those too, if they need it.
Good luck!
