Antibiotics are defined as "substances that reduce the growth or reproduction of bacteria."[1]
Misuse
One study on respiratory tract infections found "physicians were more likely to prescribe antibiotics to patients who they believed expected them, although they correctly identified only about 1 in 4 of those patients".[2] Multifactorial interventions aimed at both physicians and patients can reduce inappropriate prescribing of antibiotics. [3] Delaying antibiotics for 48 hours while observing for spontaneous resolution of respiratory tract infections may reduce antibiotic usage; however, this strategy may reduce patient satisfaction.[4]
