Hello StemSocial Community! Welcome to my blog. Unethical and Blind use of Antibiotics has resulted in high mortality rates and cancer. Quack Practices should be stopped. I love the management in developed countries where Antibiotic use is banned. We should encourage physicians and doctors to avoid the use of antibiotics. Today, I was scrolling through trending health topics on Google, and I found the term AMR;; hence, I decided to explore it.
Types of Antibiotics
Antibiotics are divided into two types based on their actions against bacteria. Mainly, we divide them into the following types.
1. Bacteriostatic
These antibiotics stopped the growth of bacteria. They keep them in a stable or stationary phase.
2. Bactericidal
These antibiotics directly kill bacteria.
Any type of Antibiotic has its specific usage. We can't manipulate them. In third-world countries, their blind usage by Quacks should be stopped because it will lead to:
Antibiotic Resistance (AMR):
Antibiotics should be used carefully. For small problems, we should not go for an advanced generation because it will generate antibiotic resistance in bacteria. I was today studying a case in which an advanced-generation antibiotic was ineffective against small bacterial problems. When the patient's history was investigated, it was reported that he had been using advanced-generation antibiotics by a Quack; hence, bacteria in this patient were more resistant.
Prognosis:
Due to AMR, the prognosis of a patient becomes poor and grave. This patient died within a few days. When a postmortem was done to study this case; he died due to lung cancer. Staphylococcus bacteria started mutation in lung cells that resulted in lung tumors. These Lungs Tumors were the reasons behind this death.
Precautions:
We need to encourage the ethical use of probiotics. There should be a complete ban on the antibiotics used either in animals or in humans. Before AMR leads to cancer and mortality, we should ban companies that are antibiotics, manufacturers.
Final Thoughts
In developing countries, antibiotics are still the ty medicines; hence, the mortality rate in these countries is high. The government is not interested in stopping antibiotic businesses by Pharmaceutical Companies.
No worries if the Government should not take action; we need to educate our people about AMR. We should encourage people to visit Technical People who have the right to diagnose and prescribe medicines. A Quack can present a solution to our problem in the short term, but he is the reason behind AMR. First, antibiotics should not be used. If we don't have any other solution except antibiotics, then we should use them wisely. There is no need to make aggressive decisions.
I hope and pray that WHO (World Health Organisation) will also take notice of AMR in third-world countries and will force all governments to make decisions.
