the background
Antibiotics are among the most prescribed medications prescribed by doctors. They work to kill bacteria that cause disease, but they are not a cure for all diseases.
Antibiotics only help in treating diseases caused by bacteria, such as tonsillitis, pneumonia, cystitis, and meningitis, while they have no effect on infection caused by viruses, and therefore do not help treat the flu.
However, bacteria can easily attack the body and multiply due to a weakened body caused by a viral infection. For example, viral infection in the lung ultimately leads to bacterial pneumonia, so it may sometimes be necessary to take antibiotics. Even in cases of viral infection.
Types of antibiotics
Broad-spectrum antibiotics: used to treat a wide range of infections.
Narrow-spectrum antibiotics: only effective against a few bacteria.
Antibiotics attack aerobic bacteria, and antibiotics that work against anaerobic bacteria.
Hypothesis Development
There are different types of antibiotics, and each group has a specific method that kills the bacteria in it, and because bacteria are different types, so there are antibiotics that cannot kill all types of bacteria.
Therefore, the choice of an antibiotic for treatment should be dependent on the type of infection, the affected area, the presence of bacteria resistant to antibiotics, and many other factors depending on the type of infection.
Antibiotic usage
Antibiotics are usually taken can orally or by injection.
The effectiveness of antibiotics begins within a few hours of taking them.
Antibiotic treatment must be completed to prevent reinfection and not to give bacteria a chance to resist antibiotics in the future.
Some antibiotics are taken on an empty stomach 'one hour before food, or two hours after food', and some are taken with food.
Dairy products should not be consumed when taking tetracycline antibiotics, as they may affect drug absorption.
An overdose of the antibiotic or more than needed
The antibiotic should be limited, as an overdose may cause:
Poisoning: Some antibiotics do not kill bacteria, so they may harm the body either by poisoning or an allergy.
Bacterial resistance to an antibiotic: The prolonged use of the antibiotic makes it less effective (bacteria form antibodies against this type of antibiotic).
Disturbing the natural balance in the body: There are types of bacteria that are beneficial to the body and they help it to function normally. The use of antibiotics may cause excessive killing of beneficial bacteria with harmful bacteria, which leads to an imbalance in the body.
Continued
Excessive use of antibiotics - especially taking antibiotics even when treatment is not appropriate - enhances antibiotic resistance. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately a third to half of human antibiotic uses are unnecessary or inappropriate.
Conclusion
Antibiotics are effective against germs only, and since the doctor alone can diagnose the disease and its causes, it is not a good idea to take antibiotics without recommendation.
If your doctor recommends taking antibiotics, you should:
commitment to the dates of taking it and the specified dose for each time.
Convenience between taking the medicine and meals according to the recommendation of the doctor or pharmacist.
End the entire treatment as prescribed by your doctor.
Stop taking the medicine and notify the doctor when side effects occur.
