An antibiotic is a type of medication used to treat bacterial infections by killing or inhibiting the growth of bacteria. They work by targeting specific bacterial processes or structures, such as cell wall synthesis or protein production. Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections, and their misuse can lead to antibiotic resistance, making infections harder to treat. It's important to use antibiotics only as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
