These days, antibiotics are showing less effect on patients.
Jagran correspondent, New Delhi. When you are sick, you take medicine with the hope that you will feel better soon. But the way these medicines are proving ineffective in bacterial infections, concerns are increasing about future treatment. What is the reason behind antibiotics becoming ineffective, how serious is this problem and how should we be cautious, let us know in detail..
There is a huge increase in dangerous types of infections that are not affected by antibiotics. According to experts, rapidly increasing antibiotic resistance has now become a threat to the future of modern medicine. In countries like India, the risk of drug-resistant infections is even higher among large populations without access to quality health care. The World Health Organization says that antibiotic resistance in South and East Asia has almost doubled compared to the global average.

Painkillers are also responsible!
According to a report, painkillers can also cause increase in antibiotic resistance. According to research journal NPJ, ibuprofen and acetaminophen increase mutations in E.coli. This makes common bacteria more resistant to the antibiotic ciprofloxacin.
It is clear from this study that the risk increases with the use of many medicines. In older people, medications given simultaneously for pain, sleep or blood pressure can also make intestinal bacteria resistant to antibiotics. E. coli can cause intestinal and urinary tract infections. This condition may cause loose stools that are sometimes bloody, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain and cramps.
Why is antibiotic resistance dangerous?
In case of bacteria becoming drug resistant, the treatment options for the sick person become very limited. This can cause many other problems such as: It increases the risk of serious illness, frequent infections or death. Medicines can have serious side effects. There may be a need for hospitalization for a long time. Treatment can be quite expensive.

Effect of skipping antibiotics
If the doctor decides the dose and duration of antibiotic medicine, his decision is based on the test report. Feeling better or your symptoms getting better does not mean that the infection has been completely cured.
Serious challenge facing low income countries
The problem of resistance is relatively serious in low and middle income countries. A major reason for this is that the health care system in these countries is weak, which makes detection, prevention and treatment difficult. A trillion dollars could be lost in global production output by 2050 due to AMR. While this will increase the cost of treatment, there will also be a decline in people's productivity.
