Speaking of viruses, the current epidemic is influenza virus, adenovirus, syncytial virus, then, simple virus risk taking antibiotics, usually useless.
Why?This also has to talk about the principle of action of antibiotics, such as penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics, which prevent mucopeptide cross-linking in cell wall synthesis by inhibiting bacterial transpeptidase, so that cell wall synthesis is hindered, resulting in bacterial rupture and death;Antibiotics that interfere with protein synthesis include foyromycin (actinomycins), aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, and chloramphenicolTherefore, antibiotics mainly act on the synthesis of the cell wall and cell membrane and protein of pathogenic microorganisms, while the virus has no cell wall and cell membrane and complete organelles, its structure is relatively simple, the core part is the viral nucleic acid, the core part of the RNA virus is RNA, if it is a DNA virus, the core part is DNA. The outer layer of nucleic acids is the protein capsid, and the main component is proteins, which are responsible for protecting nucleic acids. So antibiotics have no effect on the virus. **Viruses cause colds, we generally treat symptoms**, and will also take some antiviral drugs, such as oseltamivir for influenza, Four Seasons antiviral mixture, ribavirin, etc.
However, when the virus is emerging, combined with bacterial infection, and the blood picture is high (the total number of white blood cells and neutrophils are elevated), it is necessary to take antibiotics in combination at this time.
Okay, that's all for today's sharing!Thank you all for your support.
