#pharmacy #antibiotics #medicine #medication #pharmacist #drugs #classification Antibiotics work in various ways to combat bacterial infections. Some antibiotics, known as bactericidal, kill bacteria directly. Others, called bacteriostatic, inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria, allowing the body's immune system to handle the infection more effectively. The choice of antibiotic depends on the type of bacteria causing the infection, its location, and the patient's overall health.

Biozid (Ceftazidime) Biozid injection is a potent third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. This broad-spectrum medication acts as a double agent against bacterial infections, either killing bacteria (bactericidal) or preventing their growth (bacteriostatic). It provides a comprehensive approach to combating infections and is effective against a wide range of bacterial illnesses, including pneumonia, septicemia, gynecological infections, and bone and joint infections. Remember, Ceftazidime targets bacteria only and won't be effective against viral infections like the flu or common cold.

Don't reach for the ceftriaxone just yet! Fever doesn't always mean antibiotics are necessary. In fact, antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections, not viruses that can also cause fevers. Misusing antibiotics can lead to serious consequences like antibiotic resistance and gut microbiome disruption. If you're experiencing a fever, it's important to see a doctor who can identify the underlying cause, whether it's bacterial or viral. For bacterial infections, the appropriate antibiotic can be prescribed, not necessarily ceftriaxone. And for viral infections, antibiotics won't help at all. Understanding the cause behind the fever allows for targeted treatment, avoiding unnecessary antibiotic use. This not only benefits your own health but also helps preserve the effectiveness of these life-saving medications for future generations. #fever #antibiotics #healthcare #medicine

🌍 It's Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Month! At Group B Strep Support, we believe that antibiotics are life-saving when used wisely. However, misuse can lead to resistance, making infections harder to treat. Let’s commit to using antibiotics only when necessary and appropriate. Together, we can protect our future!

Antibiotic Do's and Don'ts   Antibiotics can save lives, but they aren't always the answer ·      Antibiotics ONLY treat certain infections caused by bacteria. ·      Antibiotics DO NOT work on viruses. ·      Antibiotics will NOT make you feel better if you have a virus. ·  Take antibiotics exactly as prescribed. ·  Do not share your antibiotics with others.   Talk to a healthcare provider about side effects of antibiotics like: ( Nausea / Diarrhea / Rash / Dizziness ) Using antibiotics wisely can protect you from unnecessary side effects and help reduce bacterial resistance in the community. **CDC #Antibiotics #publichealth #awareness

November is Bladder Health Awareness month Your bladder plays a vital role in your urinary system, working alongside your kidneys, ureters, and urethra to keep your body balanced. However, urinary tract infections (UTIs) can disrupt this system, accounting for 25–40% of antibiotics used in primary care. The link between antibiotic overuse and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is clear: more antibiotics means more resistance. That’s why accurate UTI diagnosis is key to reducing unnecessary prescriptions and safeguarding effective treatments. At Aidian, we support healthcare professionals with our reliable Uricult diagnostic tools, ensuring precise UTI identification and promoting responsible antibiotic use. Let's champion bladder health and sustainable use of antibiotics! 💙 https://lnkd.in/dijpMUqy #BladderHealthAwarenessMonth #UTI #AntibioticStewardship #AntimicrobialResistance #AMR #Aidian #youraidindiagnostics 

PRODUCT NAME: Ipraceph Capsule 500mg GENERIC NAME: Cephradine PACK SIZE: 12's SUMMARY: Cefradine or cephradine is a first generation cephalosporin antibiotic. Cephradine fights bacteria in the body. Cephradine is used to treat infections caused by bacteria, including upper respiratory infections, ear infections, skin infections, and urinary tract infections MODE OF ACTION: The anti-bacterial action of cefradine is through inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis, probably by acylation of membrane - bound transpeptidase enzymes. This prevents cross-linkage of peptidoglycan chains which is necessary for bacterial cell wall strength and rigidity

It is World Antimicrobial Awareness Week (#WAAW) #Day2 This year's theme is Educate, Advocate, Act now Today we discuss "Why Take Antibiotics Just Because You "Feel" Ill?" Taking antibiotics without proper guidance, simply because you "feel" unwell, is a choice that can contribute to the growing global issue of antibiotic resistance. When you self-medicate—especially with antibiotics—without a proper prescription or medical diagnosis, you expose microbes (those tiny, invisible "soldiers," as I like to call them) to these drugs unnecessarily. Over time, these microbes adapt, becoming resistant to the very medications designed to eliminate them. The consequence? When you genuinely need antibiotics to treat a bacterial infection, they may no longer work, leaving you vulnerable to prolonged illness or complications. Always consult a healthcare professional before taking antibiotics. Remember, antibiotics are powerful tools that should be used responsibly and only when necessary. #AMR #Antimicrobial #AntimicrobialResistance

The combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid is used to treat certain #infections caused by #bacteria, including infections of the #ears, #lungs, #sinus, #skin, and #urinary tract. Amoxicillin is in a class of medications called penicillin-like antibiotics. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. Clavulanic acid is in a class of medications called beta-lactamase inhibitors. It works by preventing bacteria from destroying amoxicillin. Antibiotics will not work for #colds, #flu, or other #viralinfections. Using antibiotics when they are not needed increases your risk of getting an infection later that resists antibiotic treatment.
