Antibiotic resistance and buying medications over the Internet

15th May 2015

ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE AND OBESITY POSE TWO MAJOR HEALTH RISKS

Some STDs are treated by antibiotics. Increasingly we see patients who have bought antibiotics over the internet from Lloyds Pharmacy or other companies. These are prescribed before seeing a doctor and being examined and a proper diagnosis being made. The antibiotics are usually either not required or not the correct ones needed to treat an infection. Infections have not even been diagnosed usually!!!This means infections are going undetected and inappropriate use of antibiotics is driving antibiotic resistance. Experts are lobbying government to stop this. We recommend testing before taking antibiotics over the internet. Do the right thing and get tested!
