ABUJA, Nigeria, Nov. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Nubwa Medugu, Consultant Clinical Microbiologist at National Hospital, Abuja has said that patients should get prescriptions from their doctors for the right antibiotic, at the right dosage, for the right and appropriate indication. A trend with some people to take antibiotics without prescription is emerging. Taking antibiotics without a doctor's prescription can promote infections which are difficult to treat. It can also contribute to the growing number of 'superbugs'. Consequences of misuse of antibiotics include more-serious illness, longer recovery, more-frequent or longer hospitalization, more doctor visits, and more-expensive treatments.

Key Points: 
  • Taking antibiotics without a doctor's prescription can promote infections which are difficult to treat.
  • Consequences of misuse of antibiotics include more-serious illness, longer recovery, more-frequent or longer hospitalization, more doctor visits, and more-expensive treatments.
  • Patients should use antibiotics as per dosage only as prescribed by doctors and not take leftover antibiotics for a later illness.
  • Likewise, it is unwise to take antibiotics prescribed to another individual simply because its imagined that the two scenarios are similar.
