Are antibiotics the solution to all infections?

Accurate use of antibiotics remains a slightly familiar subject and has many wrong beliefs.

For example, almost one in two citizens would use these drugs to treat any kind of infection.

In reality, doctors warn, antibiotics must be used carefully and are not effective against viruses but only against those caused by bacteria.

Moreover, improper use of these drugs is the basis of a very serious phenomenon - resistance to antibiotics. So some microbes, after overuse of these drugs, develop forms of resistance and cancel the effects of the drug itself. But people don't know that.

Consumption of these drugs in both humans and animals is essential to preventing the development of antibiotics - resistant bacteria.

The Fenomen has actually taken on alarming proportions and many experts speak of a silent” ”.

According to the World Health Organization, more than 670 thousand antibiotics - resistant infections occur in Europe each year, causing some 33 thousand deaths.

Global numbers are ruthless and reflect, in fact, a new pandemic in progress, as every 30 seconds a person dies because he is affected by an infection caused by resistant germs that make antibiotics useless.

So it is important that you make good use of antibiotics to treat yourself rather than promote the phenomenon of resistance.

Doctors warn, for example, that to deal with common upper - air infections, those of viral origin such as colds and flu, antibiotics are not necessary, precisely because it comes to virus infections, to which antibiotics have no therapeutic effect.

Speaking of throat pain, it has been found that in 9 out of 10 cases, throat pain is of viral origin and not bacterial origin, so it does not require taking antibiotics for treatment.

KONKLUSIAON

Antibiotics should not be used against all types of infections but only to eliminate bacteria - derived infections.

The misuse of such drugs, except does not lead to concrete effects when it comes to eliminating viral diseases, causes the very serious phenomenon of resistance to antibiotics. / ANSA.
