How did you acquire the antibiotics?
- _yb2s 2y agoIn this case I already had them- I had previously pulled a muscle that was causing a lot of pain, and a doctor inappropriately prescribed me a course of antibiotics for a physical injury that couldn't possibly be an infection, so I never took them. It really grates me that numerous times I've been inappropriately prescribed antibiotics- but the one time I had a dangerous and debilitating bacterial infection I was unable to obtain them. However many human safe antibiotics are legal to buy for animal use, and many countries sell oral antibiotics for human use over the counter without a prescription. Please- if anyone is reading this, don't use antibiotics inappropriately. Ideally work with a doctor,but if not make sure you actually need them, and you take a full course in the proper dose to avoid creating dangerous resistant strains.
- therobots927 2y agoYeah I don’t want to use them inappropriately. That being said I’ve gotten strep recently a couple times, and both times I wished I just had a few to start taking if the symptoms came on at night or over a weekend. That being said last time I had a sore throat it turned out to be Covid, and I was convinced I had strep again. So if I had my own antibiotics it’s possible I would’ve taken them inappropriately.
