I’ve not had a Dr and used them for myself and animals. It works and you can find dosage info online.
unsupervised use of antibiotics is how you end up with superbugs just saying
Unfortunately not everyone has the luxury to look out for the community when they’re sick and can’t afford to see a doctor for medication.
another example of how the US healthcare system fucks literally everyone over
Maybe the neoliberals should have thought of that before making healthcare impossible to afford.
yeah but who cares about outbreaks of antibiotic resistant disease when some asshole gets to buy 7 new yachts this year
correct! “supervised” use can be bullshit too, thank the meat industry for that.
in a perfect situation they got advice on the dl from a medical professional they know. maybe they’re a med school student and have an uptodate subscription!
You don’t need supervision, you just use it for a short time, like a prescription.
Perfect example of why it’s better to be supervised if possible. I’m not a doctor, but every human antibiotic script says “take the full course, do not stop early unless there are side effects/an allergic reaction, and do not skip any doses.” Also tuning the dose is best done by a doctor/nurse.
Critical support to anybody self medicating under capitalism, but there is a reason medical school takes so much time and effort, and it’s because this shit is really complicated.
