reported the study that some pharmaceutical Common may cause changes in the immune response children against viruses and germs.
This study prompts the question about ways to avoid side effects, in order to consume antibiotics properly.
A new joint study between European and American universities answered this question, as it showed that the use of antibiotics significantly affects the health and immunity of children in general.
According to the researchers, taking antibiotics harms the beneficial bacteria in the intestines and their metabolic functions, as they mentioned that early exposure to antibiotics causes asthma and allergies in children, by killing the beneficial bacteria that support the proper development of the immune system.
And in a laboratory experiment on mice that relied on two types of common antibiotics, the researchers found that the use of these antibiotics changed the immune response to common allergens, such as house dust.
This study supports the results of previous research that focused on the negative impact of antibiotics on human health, and on the resistance of bacteria and viruses to those drugs as well, which increased a global health problem that experts warn of, which is bacterial resistance to antibiotic drugs.
Health problems
Consultant Pediatrician at Burjeel Hospital, Ahmed Abdel-Al told"Sky News Arabia"that antibiotics affect harmful bacteria as well as beneficial bacteria in the digestive and immune system, which results in many diseases such as asthma, allergies and eczema, in addition to negative effects on the child not only in the first period of his life, as it affects the immune system directly and creates in his body Generations of bacteria resistant to antibiotics, and it is difficult for the doctor to treat the patient due to the rapid mutation of bacteria in his body.
Dr. Ahmed Abdel-Al also indicated that the effect of antibiotics on the child targets his digestive system in the future, as he may have problems such as colon infections and Irritable Bowel Syndrome, as well as affect the brain, causing hyperactivity, attention-deficit, obesity and weight gain, and the consequent major health problems.
Dr. Ahmed Abdel-Al said that the use of antibiotics when needed and in controlled quantities has benefits that protect the body from several diseases. Antibiotics must be prescribed by a doctor, and people should not buy them from the pharmacy without consulting a specialist, so legalizing this drug is the solution, especially since most children’s infections are by eighty percent. Percent are viral infections and do not need antibiotics that are used to treat bacterial infections".
And Dr. Ahmed Abdel-Al considered that the role of the doctor in this context is not only to examine the patient, but must explain to the parents why the child was given or not given the antibiotic, its type, dose and the period of treatment that must be adhered to in order to completely control the disease in the body.".
Dr. Ahmed Abdel-Al said that the correct alternatives to antibiotics are taking the child for his full vaccinations, taking care of personal hygiene, childbirth and breastfeeding that support the child’s immunity, healthy eating, sports and awareness by the World Health Organization, which dedicated a day to warn of the dangers of antibiotics.
