Side Effects of Antibiotics
Problems of the digestive system
These can be in the form of vomiting, nausea, Constipation, and Diarrhea and often occur when the medications are used excessively. The use of antibiotics mostly causes irritation of any mucous membrane in the digestive system. Normally, vomiting, nausea, or abdominal problems occur directly after taking the antibiotic and pass as drug absorption in the intestine. Elimination of these symptoms can be managed by getting injections rather than taking oral tablets or in taking antibiotics after or with meals as the food can shield the mucous membranes of the digestive system from direct interaction with the antibiotics.
Allergic reaction
This can occur with antibiotics since these antibiotics are seen by the body as a foreign substance. Allergy to antibiotics is one type of drug allergy. In certain cases, allergies to drugs may have a very severe effect which can endanger the individual’s health. Certain forms of allergy are medically referred to as anaphylactic shock which is a generalized allergic reaction and can cause death in a matter of minutes if not sooner. Stephen Jones syndrome is another type of allergy which causes necrosis of the upper layers of the skin, as well as Hemolytic Anemia.
The largest risk is found to be to the kidney and liver. It is observed when using large amounts of antibiotics in individuals with pre-existing problems with these organs such as hepatitis, Pyelonephritis, and Glomerulonephritis. The damage to the liver will show as the appearance of fever, Jaundice, dark urine as well as discoloration of stools.
