Antibiotics to Treat Bacterial Infections

Most people know by now the importance of antibiotics, especially when it gets to the winter season, and those germs start to fly. It is also fairly common knowledge that if you are given an antibiotic for strep throat or another illness, how important it is that you take the full dosage of the antibiotic that was given to you. This is to prevent your immune system from building up a tolerance to the antibiotic, and the antibiotic not working in the future.

Antibiotics are one of the most commonly prescribed medications available today. Antibiotics are prescribed and taken to cure disease because they do so by killing or slowing the numbers of bacteria in the body. The first antibiotic that was discovered and used consistently was penicillin, which happened to be accidentally discovered when taken from a mold culture. Now, there are over 100 different antibiotics that are prescribed and available to healthcare professionals to be used to cure minor ailments, as well as the sometimes life-threatening infections.

Antibiotics are extremely useful for healing a number of different types of bacterial infections. However, it’s so important to remember that antibiotics are useless when it comes to treating viral infections, such as the common cold. Taking antibiotics for purposes deemed useless can be harmful as your body can build up an immunity to the antibiotics and they will then be useless when you really need antibiotics to rid your body of a bacterial infection.

Antibiotics – Scaring Away Bacteria

You've heard without doubt about antibiotics. In fact, you must have followed a prescription at some point in your life. The discovery of antibiotics represented one of the major findings of modern medicine, allowing millions of lives to be saved. Today, we know that antibiotics are drugs we take to fight bacteria in our body, but there are other microorganisms they combat, including fungi and protozoa. Thus, we can say that they are antibacterial but also antifungal and antiprotozoal.

History tells us that the first to use similar medicine were the Chinese. In time, many cultures and civilizations discovered important facts regarding these chemical substances, but it was only modern medicine that helped to their isolation from living organisms. One of the most illustrious examples that could be given is represented by the widely used penicillin, isolated from a certain type of fungi. As the chemistry industry developed, more pharmaceutical agents with antibiotic properties were obtained, such as streptomycin from the Streptomyces bacteria. Technology allowed for antibiotics to be obtained through chemical synthesis.

Antibiotics are administered as treatment for a wide variety of bacterial infections, having low side-effects and effective targeting. There are certain criteria that antibiotics are classified after. In general, antibiotics are split into two main categories. The first is represented by the narrow-spectrum antibiotics, recommended for specific treatments, where the microorganism responsible for the infection is known. These drugs can target both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The second class of antibiotics is represented by the broad-spectrum antibiotics, usually given when someone is suspected of bacterial infection but the microorganism has not been identified.

Often times, you will hear your doctor describing the antibiotic prescribed as either bactericidal or bacteriostatic. Bactericidal antibiotics simply destroy the bacteria, eliminating it completely from the human body. With bacteriostatic drugs, the things happen differently. They prevent bacteria from multiplying, limiting their growth and thus reducing the infection with the aid of one's natural antibodies.

Antibiotics are available in several forms, depending on the type of infection treated, the age of the patient and individual differences. A large percent of the drugs pertaining to this category are administered orally, taken with a glass of water and with/without food. Serious infections, including those that are life-threatening, are treated with antibiotics administered intravenously. This way the chemical substance attacks the microorganism much faster, reducing the severity and consequences of the infection. There is also the possibility to take antibiotics as oral suspensions (syrups, usually preferred for children) and also as drops or unguents, for topic applications.

If you were to search the web for any antibiotic, you should see that most of them are available with prescription only. Doctors have the necessary experience and knowledge in order to recommend you the proper treatment for your infection, making a correct diagnosis and taking care of possible interactions with other drugs. Antibiotics are prescribed with a specific dosage and period of treatment. In some cases, the treatment can last just one week but there are more serious situations when the administration of antibiotics can be prolonged for weeks. The prescription must be followed as such and the treatment completed.

As a general rule, you should always avoid excessive alcohol consumption when being treated with antibiotics. Alcohol and drugs don't mix well and you could end up suffering from unnecessary side-effects. There is also the possibility of the alcohol to reduce the efficiency of the antibiotic, causing the infection to become more serious. As both alcohol and antibiotics are metabolized at the level of the liver, they will compete with each other, affecting the functionality of your liver enzymes and thus of the organ in general. In rare cases, patients have been transported to ICU units, with severe symptoms such as vomiting, headaches and vertigo. Considering all that, can you really say that you would mix them knowingly?

Each antibiotic comes with a prescription label, which has a lot of vital information written on it. You are taught about the recommended dosage, possible drug interactions, contraindications and many more other things. The label also presents potential side-effects, depending on the drug you are taking and the microorganism(s) that antibiotic is trying to cure. Common adverse reactions following antibiotic treatments include: nausea, vomiting and vertigo. A lot of patients complain of diarrhea, symptom caused by a misbalance of the intestinal flora, due to the antibiotic treatment. However, there are severe side-effects to any antibiotic treatment and these particularly refer to allergic reactions, with angioedema, swelling and photodermatitis.

When it comes to antibiotics, the penicillin group is often considered for bacterial infections. Amoxicillin is recommended for a wide range of infections, especially those caused by diverse types of streptococcus but also for venereal disease (syphilis, gonorrhea) and sometimes Lyme disease. Side-effects of this drug may include diarrhea, vomiting, nausea. Amoxicillin can cause allergic reactions, particularly in those who have demonstrated allergies to similar drugs. Just like penicillin, this antibiotic is known as a beta-lactam, destroying the wall cell of the infecting bacteria.

Macrolides are administered for infections caused by streptococcal microorganisms, respiratory infections, venereal disease and Lyme disease. Zithromax (Azithromycin) is a commonly used macrolide, causing similar side-effects with penicillin. In higher doses, this antibiotic is likely to cause frequent bowel movements and jaundice. Unlike penicillin, Zithromax works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacteria. As for urinary tract infections, Cipro is usually prescribed by specialized doctors. Ciprofloxacin is part of the fluoroquinolonone antibiotic group, causing nausea as a primary side-effect. Other indications for this antibiotic include: community-acquired pneumonia, prostatitis and gonorrhea.

Doxycycline and tetracycline are part of the same antibiotic group, being indicated for the treatment of syphilis, infections caused by Chlamydia and Lyme disease. They present a high risk for producing photosensitivity and are not recommended to be taken by pregnant women or those who are breastfeeding. Minocycline is also part of the tetracycline antibiotic group, being used primarily for the treatment of acne and other similar skin infections. Ceftin is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, active against Neisseria gonorrhea and haemophilus influenzae. Third-generation cephalosporin antibiotics are even more powerful, having highly efficient antibacterial properties. Levaquin is given in many serious bacterial infections, having a broad spectrum and reduced risk for potential side-effects.
