Parental Use of Antibiotics

Antibiotics are helpful in treating bacterial infections, but have been widely used inappropriately to treat viral infections such as most Upper Respiratory Tract Infections (URTIs) otherwise known as the common cold infection, the most common infections around the world. The common cold is a viral infection that can be caused by many viruses, such as: rhinovirus. It usually involved symptoms related to the upper respiratory system, some of which are: lowered temperature, congestion of the mucosa, runny nose, general malaise, and sore throat. This type of inappropriate use or overuse is increasingly high in children
