Dr. Yevhen Komarovsky told about the main and potentially dangerous mistakes made by parents in the process of treating children with antibiotics. The relevant post appeared on the TV host's Instagram page.

Komarovsky noted that the main mistake is the use of antibiotics during self-medication. The problem is related to the state policy, which allows the free sale of such drugs. Many people use these drugs as a preventive measure for viral infections.

Even some doctors consider this approach effective, but the governing bodies of the health care system do not pay enough attention to the issue. Irrational local use of antibiotics is also wrong.

A number of citizens refuse to take them before it is prescribed by the instructions or the appointment of a specialist. The justification is related to the improvement of well-being.

Komarovsky also reminded about the danger of using the same drug in case of repeated diagnosis or relapse. In this case, the risk of an allergic reaction greatly increases.

It is important to understand that the microbes that survived after a course of antibiotics need to be suppressed in another way, since the tested approach did not work with them. Some violate the rules of treatment and neglect the dosage, which also affects the effectiveness.
