Is it wise to take antibiotics back to back?

Antibiotics: antibiotics should be used cautiously,only to be taken as prescribed. If there is an indication antibiotics could be taken "back to back" under the care of your physician. Take probiotics, to help maintain the normal bowel bacterias.

Depends what the: antibiotics are for. discuss with your doctor the need for antibiotics--if he or she prescribed them to you then there must be an indication for it.
