Antibiotics harm human body

Antibiotics can not only kill pathogens, but also cause damage to human body. The drugs enter the stomach through the mouth and are absorbed into the blood through the intestine and transported to various cells of the human body. Only the drugs that reach the focus can play a bactericidal role on the pathogenic bacteria. The drugs in other tissues not only do not play a bactericidal role, but the metabolites will be discharged from the body through the liver and kidney, causing certain damage to the liver and kidney. For example, chloramphenicol, lincomycin, tetracycline, erythromycin, etc., all need to be metabolized in the liver. [10]

In addition, many antibiotics, such as penicillin and streptomycin, can cause allergic reactions, such as anaphylactic shock, from mild rash and fever to suppression of hematopoietic system, and even damage the nervous system, such as central nervous system, hearing, vision, peripheral nervous system diseases, and neuromuscular conduction block. [10]

Finally, the abuse of antibiotics may also cause flora imbalance and delay the treatment of diseases. Due to the influence of antibiotics, the types and quantities of various bacteria in the normal flora will change. Serious dysbacteriosis can lead to a series of clinical symptoms in the body, mainly seen in patients who have been treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics for a long time. A large number of antibiotic sensitive bacteria in their bodies are killed, while non sensitive bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans, take the opportunity to reproduce, causing pseudomembranous enteritis, candida albicans pneumonia, etc., which is the so-called double infection in clinical practice, thus bringing great trouble to the treatment of diseases, Serious adverse consequences
