How does hand hygiene fight antibiotic resistance?
because our hands life many microbes so you must wash your hands mostly. they cause antibiotic resistance when you eat some microbes, you feel stomach pain you eat small dose of antibiotics then bacteria become resistance the some antibiotics
What is the problem with bacteria resistant to antibiotics?
Because if some bacteria survive the antibiotics they become immune to that type of antibiotic. Then if you pass on the bacteria again the next person will not know which type of antibiotic to use.
Can antibiotics cause dehydration?
the side effects depending on antibiotic can cause dry mouth and when you have infection and take antibiotic your body needs more fluids
Why is it a problem in medicine for anibiotic resistance?
Antibiotic resistance happens when taking antibiotics more that it is required, high frequent doses will cause bacterial antibiotic resistance because in this case bacteria will get use into certain drug and so become ineffective. Resistance also happen when the patient has frequent illness, which make him/her taking the antibiotic for a long period of time. At that point patient should go the physician to describe him/her another effective drug, in order to kill bacteria and stop the illness.
Will an antibiotic cause a positive result on a drug test?
yes. if you're testing for antibiotics.

A mutation that causes antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a what mutation?
Missense mutation Nonsense mutation Frameshift insertion Frameshift deletion All may cause antibiotic resistance in bacteria
What mutations cause antibiotic resistance in bacteria?
Antibiotics are generally targets a potential life process of pathogen. If a pathogen mutates its protein for example it may be complete different than the previous and may even changes its function slightly different. Thus the antibiotic that are acting on the previous form of a protein acts no more on this newly mutated protein because of its specificity.
How can one be antibiotic resistant?
People do not develop a resistance to antibiotics, instead bacteria in the body resist the effects of the antibiotic. The bacteria changes somehow and instead of the antibiotic eliminating it, the bacteria survives and continues to cause harm and infection. Some bacteria neutralizes the antibiotic, others fight and flush out the antibiotic, and the others modify where the antibiotic goes.
Some bacteria strains may acquire resistance to antibiotics and or the ability to cause disease by acquiring what?
Some bacteria strains may acquire resistance to antibiotics and/or cause a new disease by gaining spores from other bacteria.
Does biaxin cause yeast infections?
Biaxin, as well as other antibiotics, can cause yeast infections. This occurs when the antibiotic eliminates the "normal" or good bacteria.
Can antibiotics cause resistance in bacteria?
A simple way to explain it is:When you have an infection and take antibiotics for it, the weaker bacteria are killed first, with the stronger ones surviving, or taking longer to destroy. So when you don't take the full round of antibiotics, the stronger bacteria are the ones left in your body, and they are the ones that will continue to multiply, resulting in a bacteria resistant to the antibiotic. This is why you should always take the full prescribed course of antibiotics.Also, when antibiotics are prescribed, the body's natural defense system (the good bacteria) are destroyed along with the bad bacteria. This is why you should always eat yogurt with active cultures or drink buttermilk while on antibiotics - the active cultures put the "good" bacteria back in the body.
