Antibiotics are designed to target bacterial infections by disrupting specific bacterial functions, such as cell wall synthesis or protein production. Fungi, however, are eukaryotic organisms with different cellular structures and biochemical pathways than bacteria. As a result, antibiotics do not affect fungi, and antifungal medications are specifically developed to target the unique aspects of fungal Biology, such as their cell membranes or metabolic processes. Therefore, using antibiotics for fungal infections is ineffective and can lead to inappropriate treatment.
