You must have heard a saying “Health is wealth”. This proverb is completely right in itself, so every person tries to take full care of his health. In this post I am going to tell you the most important information related to antibiotics which will be beneficial to you.

Just like the food and water we need medicine too in today’s life, it is important to maintain our health. Today, we are completely dependent on medicines, in-spites of depending on Healthy Food and Exercise. As soon as we have light cough, cold fever or head ache, we immediately resort to medicines. The medicines we use most for their treatment are antibiotic “(antibiotics).

Antibiotics meaning: Antibiotic is made up of two Greek words, anti-opposites and bios, which means eliminating harmful bacteria in our body and prevents its growth. Therefore antibiotic drugs are used to treat infection by bacteria such as colds, colds, fever, cough, TB, pneumonia, skin infections etc.

Types of Antibiotics: If we talk about types of antibiotics, there are 7 kind of antibiotics. They are given below-

  1. Penicillins
  2. Cephalosporins
  3. Macrolides
  4. Fluoroquinolones
  5. Sulfonamides
  6. Tetracyclines
  7. Aminoglycosides

Although these medicines are beneficial to you but some times it may harm you. Over usage of antibiotics may harm your immune system. According to the World Health Organization report, due to the neutrality of antibiotics across the world 6 to 7 lakh people die every year, and if this continues, then this number reaches 10 million by 2050. Will go.

So not become completely addicted to medicines and on minor issues, we do not back them. The best way to get rid of medicines is by healthy lifestyle, which includes nutritious food, stress free days, yoga and exercise. Then your “health” will become your real “wealth”
