HELP ME. What are ways that ordinary people can help to keep antibiotic resistance from getting worse? Express your opinion abou
ycow [4]
By taking daily antibiotics, people are encouraging resistance by getting their immune systems used to the formulas. Antibiotic resistance<span> occurs when bacteria change in a way that reduces the effectiveness of drugs, chemicals, or other agents designed to cure or prevent infections. The bacteria survive and continue to multiply, causing more harm. I think that people can help by not taking antibiotics for every little pain they have, instead try other simple remedies and only use medicines in cases where other remedies won't help. </span>
