You've probably taken antibiotics before because they're effective at treating bacterial infections. Taking them too often, however, may cause you to suffer from nausea, diarrhea and yeast overgrowth. Here's how you can help relieve these side effects. How antibiotics work
Antibiotics work by killing off the bacteria that cause infection, such as strep throat. In turn, this helps to alleviate the associated symptoms which include fever, redness or discharge from the affected area. In contrast, viral infections (like the flu) don't benefit from a course of antibiotics. If anything, taking antibiotics for the wrong reasons can have negative effects on your health because they don’t just target harmful bacteria, they can also wipe out populations of good bacteria in your body. The result? Symptoms like nausea, diarrhea and yeast overgrowth. What's more, exposing bacteria repeatedly to antibiotics allows them to build up resistance, so the next time you take an antibiotic it may not work.
