Under the patronage of the distinguished President of the University, Professor Dr. Hassan Shaker Magdy, the Department of Anesthesia Techniques at the College of Health and Medical Technologies held an education campaign for the optimal use of antibiotics and the prevention of bacterial resistance to antibiotics.<br />The participating students began to approach the students of the rest of the departments and colleges at our university and gave their information to the students regarding the topic of the activity. Many antibiotics successfully treat infections caused by bacteria (bacterial infections). Antibiotics also work to prevent the spread of diseases. In addition, it reduces serious medical complications. Antibiotics treat infections caused by bacteria, but not infections caused by viruses (viral infections). If you take an antibiotic when you have a viral infection, the antibiotic attacks bacteria in your body that are beneficial or do not cause disease. This incorrect treatment may cause harmless bacteria to develop antibiotic-resistant properties, which may share those properties with other bacteria, or may provide an opportunity for potentially harmful bacteria to replace harmless bacteria. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics are two major factors in antibiotic resistance. The public, health care providers and hospitals alike can help ensure that medicines are used correctly. This would reduce the increase in antibiotic resistance.
