This could lead to serious consequences in the future. It is not too late to fight back. Don't demand antibiotics. If your physician says your child doesn't need antibiotics, accept the diagnosis. Do read the label and store correctly.
Improper storage can make an antibiotic less effective.
Don't skip a dose. When you miss a dose, the level of antibiotic in the body drops, allowing the disease-carrying bacteria to recover and become stronger. Don't stop too soon. If you stop taking antibiotics when you start to feel better, the strongest, most resistant bacteria may be left to multiply. Don't stockpile or share antibiotics.
