Since the moment of the first antibiotic’s – penicillin – invention, such preparations save lives of dozens millions of patients. However, maybe someone can count people, whose health suffered from antibacterial chemotherapy? Well, which cases really require antibacterial preparations and when it is better refusing them?
Almost any remedy, besides medicinal effect, has also side effects. And they are hardly ever pleasant or wholesome for your health. In case of antibacterial preparations there are following general side effects:
1. Everybody knows mucous tunics normal microflora plays a very important role in support of human health. Unfortunately, antibacterial preparations have only total effect – i.e. they kill all bacteria, both pathogenic and “useful”. So, after treatment with such preparations you should definitely bacterize your organism with “useful” ones – for this purpose you take so-called probiotics and other microbiologic preparations.
2. All chemical preparations are toxic. First of all, they affect liver. Doctors know that in the result of treatment of numerous bacterial infections, patients often may receive chronic, and almost incurable toxic hepatitis.
3. Most antibacterial preparations have also their specific nuances of toxicity. One affect nervous system, others – poison nervous cells etc. The most well-known example: streptomycin, which was so popular for a long time, can lead to deafness as a result of toxic influence on auditory nerve.
Now manufacturers try to name most known side effects and also nuances of interaction between preparations in annotation – this way they protect themselves from prosecutions.
4. Wrong usage of antibacterial preparations leads to pathogenic bacteria adaptation to them. Thus, today thousands of mutant cultures wander around our planet, and they cannot be affected by modern preparations. That is how practically incurable tuberculosis or very dangerous mutant staphylococcosis appear.
The main indication for antibacterial preparations – is acute bacterial infection. If a doctor determines a certain pathogenic organism according to dysbacteriosis analysis, then prescription of antibacterial preparation is absolutely natural and adequate step. In such cases these preparations are a necessary base for efficient treatment.
In case of chronic bacterial infections, general bacterial inflammation, expediency of antibacterial preparation taking is rather a disputable question. The matter is that chronic infection testifies to disbalance of microflora’s normal composition and weakened immunity. In such case, if we kill one bacterium, another one will definitely take its place, and it can be also dangerous.
This way you can cure streptococcal angina – and as a result of microflora’s and immune system’s depression, you can be infected with mycoplasma. You can cure mycoplasmosis and gain candidiasis. And candidiasis, in its turn, can cause both thrush and angina.
So, all cases of chronic bacterial infection treatment should include immunomodulators. As a rule, these are phytopreparations or homoeopathy. You also need microbiologic specimens – “wholesome” bacteria they contain will force out pathogenic ones from mucous tunics.
It is useless taking antibacterial preparations while viral infection. In fact, as antibacterial preparations destroy normal microflora, suppress immune system and poison organism in general, their taking while flu or SARS often only worsen prognosis for recovery.
Do not prescribe yourself antibacterial therapy by yourself. These are quite dangerous preparations and you should definitely consult a doctor before taking them.
On no account take antibacterial preparations as preventive measures, in reduced dosages or incomplete course. It is such usage of these preparations that leads to development of mutant bacteria causing incurable infections. If you’ve already taken one pill (or made first injection) – it is better passing the course completely.
To reduce a toxic effect of antibacterial preparations, it is strongly recommended using homeopathic or phytopreparations with drain effect.
After antibacterial therapy you should recover microflora of mucous membranes with help of microbiologic preparations.
Antibacterial preparations are quite dangerous medicinal remedies. To keep your health, take them only in cases when it is really necessary (and only according to a doctor’s prescription).
