Antibiotics ek powerful medicine category hai, lekin misuse se antibiotic resistance develop hota hai—matlab bacteria future me medicines se nahi marte. Ye global health problem hai, aur daily life me chhoti mistakes se accelerate hoti hai.
Common mistakes:
- Cold/viral fever me antibiotic lena (antibiotics virus pe kaam nahi karte)
- Doctor ne 5 din bola, aap 2 din me stop (symptoms better lagte hi)
- Bache hue antibiotics later “same symptoms” me use karna
- Wrong dose timing (missed doses)
Resistance ka matlab ye hai ki next time infection severe ho sakta hai, hospital-level antibiotics ki need pad sakti hai. Saath hi gut bacteria bhi damage hote hain, jisse diarrhea, fungal infections, aur immunity issues ho sakte hain.
Smart rules:
- Antibiotics sirf doctor prescription pe
- Full course complete
- Dose timing fix
- Side effects (rash, breathing trouble) me immediate help
Agar aapko baar-baar throat infection hota hai, to root cause check karo: allergies, reflux, smoking, poor sleep. Antibiotics symptom quick fix nahi, targeted treatment hai. Responsible use aapko aur society dono ko protect karta hai.
