Antimicrobials are drugs that either kill or suppress microscopic organisms such as bacteria, viruses and parasites. Antibiotics are the sub-group of antimicrobial drugs that act against bacteria.
One unexpected consequence of antibiotics is the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, posing a significant challenge to treating infections. Additionally, antibiotics can disrupt the balance of beneficial bacteria in the gut, leading to side effects like diarrhea or yeast infections. Finally, some people may experience allergic reactions or other adverse effects when taking antibiotics.
a)antibiotics
Viruses are (debatably) not alive while bacteria are; meaning they are smaller and require a living host to survive. Bacteria are killed with antibiotics, but viruses are not.
Antibiotics were developed in the 1920s and later commercialized in the 1940s.
Antibiotics have various residence times with the human body. Some are designed be highly soluble and pass through quickly whilst others have a longer residence time. This is related to the chemical structure of the anti biotic. The risk of addition to of anti biotics to two fold. Firstly continual unnecessary addition of antibiotics only serves to increase the chance of mutation for anti biotic resistant bacteria which can only serve to increase chance of a strain which effects humans and is difficult to treat with current antibiotics. Secondly as shown The New England Journal of Medicine (10/18/01) residence of these chemicals within the meat (which is then consumed) and other chemicals with unknown synergistic effects. This may (unproven) have the potential to accumulate in human muscle with unknown effects.
biotics
no you have to take moldie biotics
medicine + bacteria= antibiotics
Anti biotics will not cure a virus .
Because antibiotics treat bacterial infections not viral. There are some viral colds like the flu in which antibiotics will work.
Antibiotics are used as an aid to the body's immune system for fighting harmful bacteria.
No, antibiotics are only effective against BACTERIAL infections and a cold is a VIRAL infection.
When taking Antibiotics you need to use a back-up method of protection for 2 weeks.
anti - againstbiotic - life, specifically bacteria
It means the infection is either not bacterial, or the bacteria are not sensitive to the antibiotics, or the patient is immunocompromised. but I am not a doctor
NO. Antibiotics, as in this instance have does not affect the bodies coagulation (clotting) abilities. As a reult, it will not impact on "bleeding", be it healing faster or slower. All that will happen as a result of taking anti-biotics, is that any infection that had entered your body via the open wound will be killed.
some anti-biotics can be quite harsh and so can knock out other 'good' bacteria causing such things as thrush for which you'd need additional meds...
