Antibiotics are not drugs that can be used arbitrarily, need to be used for the right disease, at the right dose, at the right time and under the guidance of a doctor/pharmacist. Antibiotics only treat infections caused by bacteria, not viruses.

With the advent of antibiotics, the medical field of treating infectious diseases has turned a new page, thanks to antibiotics millions of lives have been saved from dangerous infections. So what are antibiotics? Mechanism of action of antibiotics?

Each antibiotic has certain advantages and disadvantages. When antibiotics are used in combination, these side effects can add up or increase. Therefore, the combination of antibiotics in treatment should also adhere to the principles of reasonable antibiotic combination.

The principle of using antibiotics should be strictly followed, otherwise it will cause antibiotic resistance and some other side effects that change the effectiveness of the drug. Especially, when antibiotic resistance has no alternative treatment, it will affect the patient's life.

Urinary tract infection is a common disease, the use of appropriate antibiotics is the optimal treatment measure. Several groups of antibiotics are preferred in the treatment of urinary tract infections and to achieve the best effect, it is necessary to choose the right antibiotic for the right bacterial cause.

In patients with renal failure, the ability to eliminate toxic substances from the body through the urine is reduced, so drugs in doses for people without kidney failure are not harmful to the body, but in patients with renal failure. It causes the accumulation of drugs that have negative effects on the body. Therefore, when treating bacterial infections in patients with renal failure, it is necessary to reduce the dose of antibiotics or prolong the duration of the drug.

Bacteria that are resistant to many different types of antibiotics is called multi-antibiotic resistance, a situation that is an alarming risk in the future in part due to improper use of antibiotics. When multidrug-resistant bacteria need to be found, it is necessary to find the antibiotic to which the bacteria is still sensitive, to do this, it is necessary to make an antibiogram.

Bacteria resistant to antibiotics make the drug no longer effective clinically, not killing bacteria even when used in high concentrations and for a long time. Therefore, it can be considered that antibiotic resistance is a great threat because bacteria will "comfortably" roam and grow without any weapons to stop it. So how can we prevent drug-resistant bacterial infections?

Cipthasone is a drug with the main ingredient is Ciprofloxacin 15 mg, belongs to the group of Quinolone antibiotics. Cipthasone is mainly used to treat bacterial infections of the eyes and ears. Learning basic information such as Cipthasone ingredients, uses, dosage and side effects will help patients and their loved ones get the best treatment results.

Antibiogram is a technique that plays an important role in limiting bacterial resistance. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Vietnam is among the countries with the highest antibiotic resistance in the world. The number of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains is increasing.

Antibiotics are not helpful for many lower respiratory tract infections caused by viruses. Acute bronchitis usually does not require antibiotic treatment. Antibiotics for lower respiratory tract infections are mainly used for patients with acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis or pneumonia. Accordingly, the indication for treatment of bacterial lower respiratory tract infections is selected by considering the patient's age, the severity of the disease, and the presence of underlying disease.
