UTI treatment without antibiotics beta lactam antibiotics

What are antibiotics?

Antibiotics are medicines that fight certain infections. They can save lives when used correctly. Antibiotics destroy bacteria or stop them from reproducing.

Before bacteria can multiply and cause symptoms, the body’s immune system can kill them. WBCs or white blood cells attack harmful bacteria, and even if symptoms occur the body’s immune system can typically cope and fight the infection. However, sometimes the harmful bacterias are excessive in number, and the immune system can’t fight all of them. Antibiotics are helpful in this scenario.
