The word antibiotic means “against life.” Any drug that kills germs in your body is technically an antibiotic. But most people use the term when they’re talking about medicine that is meant to kill bacteria.

Hey mate..
=========

Antibiotics are powerful medicines that fight bacterial infections. If used properly, antibiotics can save lives. They either kill bacteria or keep them from reproducing. Your body's natural defenses can usually take it from there.

Antibiotics do not fight infections caused by viruses, such as

1) Colds

2) Flu

3) coughs

4) bronchitis

5) Sore throats, unless caused by strep.
