According to experts based in last researches, the usage of antibiotics for acne
may increase common illness or diseases, what it was demonstrated by an experiment
in which a group of individuals that was treated with antibiotics for acne for more
than six weeks (all of hem were volunteers). After the experiment, this group was
more than twice as likely to develop an upper respiratory tract infection within
one year as individuals with acne who were not treated with antibiotics.
The overuse of antibiotics, explain experts, will lead to resistant organisms and
an increase in infectious illness. There have been, however, few studies about
people who have actually been exposed to antibiotics for long periods and there the
importance of this one.
The researchers searched information such as how often individuals were likely to
see a physician, and compared the incidence of a common infectious illness, upper
respiratory tract infection (URTI), in individuals treated with antibiotics for
acne and those whose acne was not treated with these medications.
Experts reported that �within the first year of observation, 15.4 per cent of the
patients with acne had at least one URTI, and within that year, the odds of a URTI
developing among those receiving antibiotic treatment were 2.15 times greater than
among those who were not receiving antibiotic treatment�.
