Advice/medical education
Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections. They are ineffective against viral
infections.
If your doctor has prescribed antibiotics, you must take them strictly for the illness you
currently suffer from.
Despite antibiotics, some bacteria may survive or proliferate. This phenomenon is
called resistance: some antibiotic treatments become ineffective.
The improper use of antibiotics increases resistance. It could even help bacteria to
become resistant and thus delay your recovery or reduce the effectiveness of antibiotics if you do not
correctly observe
- the dosages;
- the timings;
- the duration of the treatment.
Consequently, to preserve the effectiveness of this medicine:
- 1 - Use antibiotics only when they are prescribed to you.
- 2 - Follow the prescription carefully.
- 3 - Do not reuse an antibiotic without a medical prescription, even if you intend to treat a similar illness.
- 4 - Do not give your antibiotic to another person, it may not be suitable for their illness.
- 5 - After completing the treatment, return all unused medicines to your pharmacist to ensure they are disposed of correctly.
