ANTIBIOTIC MISUSE - CATASTROPHIC HUMAN HEALTH CRISIS ?
Dr.T.V.Rao MD
Today if we look at the world of medicine most terrifying thing continues to be misuse of Antibiotics next to Tobacco and alcohol abuse, Antibiotic resistance caused by misuse or overuse, growing menace If we look at many prescriptions, the physician ,clinicians and even chemists prescribe and dispense a hazardous combinations of antibiotics terrible to think of combination of new generation of Cephalosporins Vancomycin Ofloxacin and Levofloxacin group of Antibiotics, Indian drug industry mostly ridden with conflicts and unfortunately markets flooded with terrible combination and science can never imagine to happen, we have poor research wings, and doctors made their success of the day killing the future of Antibiotics, Patients should realize much of the Antibiotics the patients are consuming are not effective and above all create a path for more resistant infections. And Antibiotic resistance is posing a major threat to public health around the world. Doctors and hospitals are now dealing with multidrug resistant infectious disease, organisms that are either difficult — or impossible — to treat.Abuse of antibiotic use creating havoc and Turing normal humans to carriers and spread of Multidrug resistant microbes . THE TRAGEDY OF MISUSE OF ANTIBIOTIC CONTINUES-
Antibiotic overuse or misuse is largely to blame for the emerging superbugs in our hospitals and communities. While antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections, certain fungal infections and some types of parasites, they are frequently prescribed improperly for other ailments., If we look at developing world too patients are treated and experimented with broad spectrum and new generation of antibiotics without rationalism and control above all the physicians too anxious to save their patients, Prevailing conditions in many developing countries include lack of infrastructure of Microbiology departments few Microbiologists interested to work with scientific spirit it is unfortunate that even the Medical and Health care teaching institutes least emphase the hygiene and simple ways to prevent the infectious diseases, However it is difficult to control the Medical Profession and professionals in India with conflicts of interests, I wish we have to empower the public and common man on ANTIBIOTIC MENACE and until patients and lay man realise the true problem it is a matter of CATASTROPHIC HUMAN HEALTH CRISIS
I wish the Microbiologists should be lead persons to spread the message on Hygiene and a simple hand washing can create a sense of well being and reality check on the spread of infections,
Irrational use of Antibiotics have lead to Major health crisis beyond the control of science TIME TO THINK
JUST WASH YOUR HANDS SAVE LIVES
