Wrong and excessive use of antibiotics can have serious effects on the kidneys. These medicines are not made for every disease, but are given only to treat bacterial infections.
Nowadays, it has become common to take medicine at the slightest feeling of unwell. Even in case of mild cough, cold or minor fever, people directly go to the medical store and buy antibiotics without consulting the doctor. They think that this will cure the disease quickly, but this habit can gradually harm the body.
According to kidney disease experts, wrong and excessive use of antibiotics can have a serious effect on the kidneys. These medicines are not made for every disease, but are given only for the treatment of bacterial infections. Due to lack of information and desire for quick recovery, people start taking medicines on their own, which can cause major health problems in the future.
Why are antibiotics dangerous?
Experts say that there is no need for antibiotics in cases like cold and viral fever. In viral infection, the body itself gets cured by fighting the virus in 3 to 5 days. In such a situation, taking antibiotics is not only useless but can also be harmful.
has a direct effect on the kidneys
Taking antibiotics unnecessarily puts extra pressure on the kidneys. Doing so for a long time can damage the kidneys and increases the risk of serious kidney disease.
risk of drug becoming ineffective
By repeatedly and incorrectly taking antibiotics, the body’s bacteria become stronger against them. This is called antibiotic resistance. This means that when the medicine is really needed, it will not work.
Other side effects
Misuse of antibiotics can cause not only kidney problems but also problems like allergy, diarrhea, stomach ache and loss of good bacteria from the body. This weakens the immunity.
What to do, what not to do?
Doctors advise to take antibiotics only on doctor’s advice. Gargling, taking steam, drinking more water and taking complete rest are safer and more effective measures during viral infection.
