FinanceAntibiotics May Increase Risk For Ear Infection
Antibiotics, thanks to overuse, often do more harm than good. For instance, repeated use in treating acute ear infections in children increases the risk of recurrent ear infections by 20 percent. Researchers have found that 63 percent of children given amoxicillin experienced a recurrent ear infection within three years, compared with 43 percent of children given a placebo at the time of their initial infection.
The moral of this tale? Let so many “drugs”, don’t believe the hype when it comes to antibiotics. The body is designed to fight things and by doing so, raises your immunity. Antibiotics only hinder this whole process and with repeated use, will weaken your immune system. Hit the link for the full rundown on the study. It confirms what we already know. That antibiotics should be used sparingly.
