A member asked:
I read that t- cells can fluctuate. if i was on antibiotics for a minor infection could that have caused a decrease in t-cells?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection: Since T cell regulates immune function , one would likely see changes during an infection. However antibiotic per se has no effect on T cells' immune function- unless a drug allergy has developed.
