Am I going to die if I don't finish my antibiotics?
Some people don't finish taking their antibiotics, they take them as the doctor prescribed, but stop when the symptoms start to subside. You won't necessarily die from not taking antibiotics, but if you do, the current ailment you have could progress into worse conditions. So either way, you should finish taking your antibiotics.

Why is it important to know which species of bacteria are susceptible to which antibiotics?
If bacteria are susceptible to antibiotics, exposure to antibiotics will lead to the death or weakening of the bacteria.
Which could result from a person who does not finish the prescribed amount of antibiotics for an infection?
For you personally, if you don't finish the course of antibiotics, the infection may appear to have cleared but in fact may still remain and come back stronger and worse. Depending on the infection, that could mean another course of antibiotics is needed or more drastic treatment. Of course, you may just be lucky and the infection has already been cleared but it will do you no harm to finish the course and it is more likely that you won't have cleared it up. Some infections even take more than one course of antibiotics.

Does tetracycline have analgesic properties?
TETRACYCLINE is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections; and in many cases, the doctor may prescribe Tetracycline for people with problem acne. Tetracycline does NOT have any analgesic (pain killer) properties. An important thing to remember about antibiotics is to finish the ENTIRE prescription, even if you feel better. Ideally, no one should have leftover antibiotics in their medicine cabinet. If you have "some leftover", flush them. Intermitent taking of antibiotics is VERY damaging to your immune system over time.
Why are antibiotics important?
You don't technically need antibiotics if your immune system was strong enough to fight of an infection itself. Antibiotics help inhibit bacterial growth by interfering with its general proliferation, whether it be through reproduction or cell wall synthesis. Often, antibiotics are there to aid your body in ridding itself of a bacterial infection faster. For the elderly or immunologically impaired, antibiotics weaken the bacteria enough for the body to clean up the mess. One thing antibiotics cannot do is completely get rid of a bacteria infection by itself, the body will still do most of the work.
What are antibiotics useful for?
Antibiotics are used to fight bad bacteria/infection, although they just attack all cells in the body both good and bad. It is important to take antibiotics as prescribed and to take the entire dose. If you do not take the whole prescription, the antibiotics will attack only the good cells and leave your body more susceptible to another infection or illness. You can also find probiotics and a prescription is not required for taking them. You can order them online.It is also important to note that antibiotics SHOULD NOT be used for colds or the flu (including H1N1). These illnesses are caused by viruses, which are not responsive to antibiotics. Taking antibiotics is useless when you have the cold/flu.
