    Antibiotics

    Hi all
    I have to take antibiotics for the next 3 days as i have a UTI, someone once told me that when taking antibiotics it lowers your immune system and this has freaked me right out esp now its cold season :(

    It is true that antibiotics increase the risk of getting other bacterias (they leave more space to the ones that they don't cover + to resistent bacterias) but not when you take them for as short as 3 days.
    Take your medicine and don't worry about it!

    I recommend you to take them because every medicine has harms however we should use them till we get better again
