Microbes are tiny organisms that cannot be seen by the human eye. There are microbes that are good for you and microbes that are bad for you. Everyone has an immune system, which is a bodily function that defends your body from bad microbes. the immune system is not an organ but its in your bloodstream and most of your organs. In your immune system there are things called antibodies which kill bad microbes. When you have medicines and jabs, there are bad microbes inside the medicines/jabs. They always put in quite mild bad microbes though, so it doesn't make you ill but does prepare the antibodies so if they see the same kind of bad microbes again they will be able to kill them faster, giving you less chance of catching the disease.
For example, in the smallpox jab they give you the smallpox that cows get (yes, cows can get smallpox too). But humans can't actually get ill from having small amounts of cow smallpox injected into them, because our antibodies can kill cow smallpox microbes easily. But when the antibodies kill the cow smallpox microbes, they remember them, so if you ever get human smallpox microbes inside you, the antibodies will remember how they killed the cow smallpox microbes and kill the smallpox microbes in the same way. Because they have already killed the same thing before, they will kill them quicker, giving you much less chance of the smallpox microbes getting through your immune system and giving you the disease.
As humans are eukaryotes, our genome is extremely difficult to truly decode due to processes such as exon shuffling, the genetic "junk" and likely dozens of other observed aspects of our genome.
Naturally, many people with genetic defects need a constant supply of medicines (diabetics will be used from here on out in this section). Creating insulin in a lab was very difficult before the onset of cDNA, which (long story made really really short) is placing the human insulin gene into yeast or another simple eukaryote. Thankfully, all eukaryotic cells "know" how to process our genome and human hormones can be made in vivo in laboratories in greater quantity than ever before.
Antibiotics are chemicals made by microbes to destroy competing bacteria or fungi. Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics, making it harder to treat the infections they cause. The search is on to find new antibiotics that enable us to control bacterial diseases.
^Some microbes do create antibiotics to ward off neighboring species, though the classic example here is in Diabetes treatment.
Diabetics may be unable to produce an essential hormone called 'insulin'. It is possible, however, to introduce the gene for insulin into a yeast cell. This genetically-modified yeast cell then creates insulin as guided by its altered genetic material, allowing scientists to then harvest the insulin so that diabetics can inject it into their bloodstream as required.
Before this development, it was necessary to extract it from the pancreas of pigs!
antibiotics are chemically formed by microorganisms that kill or stop the growth of new microorganisms
The group and type of medicines that fight microbes are antibiotics and antiseptics.

I am working on a science essay right now i think they can if microbes includes disease causing pathogens because a fever is a disruption of homestasis and the body purposly does this to help fight an infection
they kill them!
All bacteria are microbes, but not all microbes are bacteria. Viruses and fungi are the other two main types of microbes, or microorganisms.
Microbes are organisms that are composed of only one solitary cell or a cell which lives in a colony with other cells. Thermophilic microbes are organisms that prefer to live in areas with a temperature that is higher than the normal.Mesophilic are these microbes that prefer areas with moderate temperature.
The disease causing microbes are called pathogens.
you can have medicen
targets cells that fight invading microbes
Doctors use vaccines to fight microbes on a long term scale. They use antibiotics to fight them on a short term scale.
Immune system to react and prepare the organism to fight future invasions by these microbes.
by using microbes white blood cells fight
There are both harmful and useful microbes. Harmful microbes like bacteria,virus and fungus can cause diseases while some useful microbes like bacteria can help in fermentation process like the yeast or as food like mushroom and many lacobacillus microbes that help in producing vitamins and in synthesis of food.Many microbes help produce antibiotic medicines. Microbes like algae are edible or help by photosynthesis to maintain the CO2 -O2 balance in the environment.
Theoretically the answer is yes. But many medicines are unnecessary, dangerous or false products.
your stomach acids fight it off and they kill the microbes. in a way this is good and bad because if it kills the bad microbes then it kills the good microbes in our body aswell!

A larger number of microbes increases the risk that you will be infected. Your immune system may be able to fight off a smaller number, but a large number may overwhelm your defenses.
Antibiotics are medicines that cure infections. They have no effect on viruses.
