3. Visit a doctor. Find out why antibiotics should not be overused. Prepare a short report.
Answer:
During my visit to the doctor in the local hospital, antibiotics should not be overused because of:
Antibiotic Resistance: Overuse of antibiotics may make the bacteria resistant to the antibiotics. This makes antibiotics less effective in the long run.
Side Effects: Digestive problems and allergic reactions can occur due to overuse of antibiotics.
Killing of Good Bacteria: Excessive usage of antibiotics may kill beneficial bacteria in the body such as in the stomach, which can lead to long-tern healthy consequences.
