Antibiotics Aren’t Always the Answer: CDC

Short CDC brochure on how antibiotics aren’t always the answer for you or your child. Antibiotics do not work on viruses. They also have side effects. Bacteria tend to adapt over time and exposure, to become resistant to the drugs. This makes the drugs potentially ineffective, which has happened for many drugs in recent decades. CDC stands for the Centers for Disease Control.
