why is it dangerous to take antibiotics every time you feel a tiny bit sick?

Sagot :

Answer:

Because antibiotics kill off all bacteria (not selective to just the bad ones). This means that the helpful bacteria important to your health (especially those found in the digestive tract) are also killed when you take antibiotics. Taking antibiotics every time you feel a bit sick actually lowers your body's immune response because the helpful bacteria are also killed off before they have a chance to help improve your health.
