What is a Viral Infection?
A virus is one of the two major infectious agents. Viruses cannot be
controlled with antibiotics. If your natural defenses are weakened by
stress, lack of rest and poor diet, your body may not be able to
resist a viral attack. The signs and symptoms of a viral infection may
include: fatigue, sore throat, cough, runny nose, watery eyes, nasal
congestion, swollen glands, muscle aches, vomiting, diarrhea, and
fever. Viral infections such as influenza, colds, and mononucleosis do
not improve with treatment by penicillin or other antibiotics.
What is a Bacterial Infection?
Bacteria are the second type of the major infectious agents. Most
bacterial infections get better by themselves and do not require
treatment. Infections such as bladder infections, sexually transmitted
diseases, boils, and ear infections often require treatment with an
antibiotic.
How do antibiotics work in the body?
Antibiotics are medicines used in the treatment of infections caused
by bacteria. They work by killing bacteria and/or preventing their
growth. There are many different types of antibiotics and each can be
used to treat a different kind of infection. The clinician in charge
of your care can best determine if you need antibiotics and which type
is best for you.
How do I properly take the antibiotics?
The antibiotics prescribed by your clinician is for your present
infection only. It is very important to follow the directions for the
medication prescribed. Antibiotics are generally given for a specified
period of time (7-10 days, for example) to be taken at specific
intervals (every 4, 6, 8 or 12 hours). This is necessary to keep the
right amount of the antibiotics in the bloodstream. Too much of the
medication may cause an adverse reaction, too little may not be
completely effective. Some drugs have specific instructions for taking
them before, after, or during meals. Your clinician and pharmacist can
provide you with complete instructions for your particular medication
needs.
If I feel better after a few days, can I stop
taking the antibiotics?
To clear your infection completely, continue taking the antibiotic for
the full time of treatment, even if you begin to feel better after a
few days. This is especially important in "strep" infections, since
serious heart problems could develop later if your infection is not
completely cleared up. Also, if you stop the medication too soon, your
symptoms may return.
How does the doctor or nurse tell the difference
betwen bacterial and viral infections?
Your clinician will ask several questions about your symptoms, conduct
a physical examination, and may order special blood tests or cultures
to fully evaluate your condition. Based on the physical findings and/or
the results of tests, your clinician can determine what type of
infection is present and how to treat it.
What should I do if I miss a dose of the
antibiotics?
If you miss a dose of the antibiotic, take it as soon as possible.
Then go back to your regular dosing schedule. However, don't double up
doses.
What should I do if Antibiotics makes me ill,
causes diarrhea and I want to stop taking it?
You should always notify the doctor or nurse as soon as possible if
the medication prescribed makes you ill or if you feel you want to
stop taking it for some reason.
When shpuld I see the Doctor again?
Your clinician should discuss with you the plans for follow-up visits
if they are needed. Appointments can be made in-person or by calling
the Dial-A-Nurse line at 333-2700. Seek professional help if your
symptoms worsen, if you feel you have not improved after completing
all of the medication, or if you have unusual reactions or side
effects.
Can I drink Alcohol when I'm taking Antibiotics?
Alcohol is a drug and in combination with other drugs including
antibiotics, can cause an interaction with undesirable results. Ask
your clinician about your specific medication, but in general, you
should avoid combining alcohol with any medication.
What should I do if I take another medication
besides antiobiotics?
Allways inform your clinician of all medications you are taking,
including birth control pills and over-the-counter drugs. Drugs
sometimes interact with each other so that the combined effect may be
very different from the intended effect. Some antibiotics decrease the
effectiveness of the birth control pill, and an unplanned pregnancy
may occur. During the time you are taking an antibiotic and for the
following week consider using condoms and spermicidal jelly.
