Overview Of Over-The-Counter Antibiotics

Antibiotics seem to treat many bacterial infections. Some of them may kill bacteria. Others appear to stop them from spreading or growing further. Antibiotics may be offered orally, topically, intravenously, or via injection. However, in all cases, they do not seem to help viral infections. This means that they may not work on the common cold and flu, among others. Finishing a course of antibiotics appears necessary to lower the risk of antibiotic resistance.
