Antibiotic Resistance

Antibiotics are different kinds medicines that takes care of infections that bring bacteria. Antibiotics cant fight off everything. Antibiotics cure patients by killing bacteria in there body. Sometimes antibiotics are use in the wrong manner it causes bad things to happen. When bad things happen when your using antibiotics then it is called antibiotic resistance.

Now these days antibiotics are used so much in the US that it is causing a huge problem. These problems happen when the bacteria in your body changes and the medicine doesn’t work effectively anymore. Most of the time the patients who are using it stop when the symptoms go away. So when this happens the bacteria in your body grow more and get less affected by the antibiotics. If these antibiotics are not treated in the future then we will have bigger problems later on in our lives.

If the bacteria is not killed off and the person stops taking the medicine then his/her problems will get worse. Another thing is that bacteria brows really fast because they don’t have long DNA to copy so its fast. If antibiotics are taken and are not able to destroy the bacteria there expected to kill then it will keep growing and become much harder to get rid of. Also if the bacteria comes in contact with another person then it will spread constantly. This is not a good thing.
