Bacteriostatic and Bactericidal Antibiotics

"Bacteriostatic and bactericidal antibiotics"

There are two types of antibacterial drugs: bacteriostatic and bactericidal. Bacteriostatic drugs can inhibit the reproduction of bacteria, so that they cannot proliferate, but the bacteria do not die abruptly. Its function is to stop the metabolism and division of bacteria, so that their growth is sluggish. Although the number of bacteria no longer increases, their vitality still exists. If you go without its medicine, you may get a relapse.

As for bactericidal drugs, they are more powerful and can directly break the wall membrane of bacteria, destroy their nucleic acid, protein and other key structures, causing the bacteria to lose their vitality and die. Once it works, the bacterial form dissipates and no longer has the ability to regenerate.

Compared with the two, bacteriostatic drugs, or slow down the disease, are suitable for mild diseases, or for adjuvant treatment, borrowing the body's own immunity to help dispel diseases. And bactericidal drugs are mostly used for severe diseases, and bacteria are rampant, which is not enough to quickly eliminate their harm. Doctors who use drugs must review the severity of the disease, distinguish the characteristics of bacteria, and then choose bacteriostatic and bactericidal drugs, or use them alone or in combination, so that the medicine can do its best and the disease can be cured.
