Oral Antibiotics
Oral antibiotics are medications taken by mouth to fight bacterial infections. They work by killing bacteria or stopping their growth, helping your body clear the infection. Common forms include tablets, capsules, or liquids. While effective, they must be used exactly as prescribed to prevent resistance or side effects. It’s important to complete the full course, even if you feel better sooner. Oral antibiotics are used for many infections, such as sore throats, urinary tract infections, and skin infections, providing a convenient and effective treatment option outside of hospitals or clinics.
