A member asked:
What usually results from depending on antibiotics too often?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Resistant strains: Overuse of antibiotics allow bacteria to mutate and develop resistant strains. Hence rendering antibiotics less effective. Only take if medically necessary. The next time you really need them, you want them to be effective!
