Antibiotics are substances produced by microorganisms that kill or inhibit the growth of other microorganisms. Chemotherapeutic agents are natural, semi-synthetic, or synthetic chemicals used to treat bacterial and other microbial infections. Some common adverse effects of antibiotics include toxic effects on organs like the liver or kidneys, hypersensitivity reactions ranging from mild rashes to anaphylactic shock, development of drug resistance, superinfections caused by disruption of normal microbiota, and vitamin deficiencies.

Toxic Effects – Local Irritation & Abscess Formation At Site
Of Injection Or Organ Toxicity Like Liver Or Kidney Damage.
Hypersensitivity Reaction – Mild Rashes To Sever
Anaphylactic Shock In Susceptible Person.
Drug Resistance – Means Unresponsive For Some Drugs.
Super Infection – Appearing A New Infection While Treating
Previous Infection.
Vitamins Deficiency – These Destroy The Bacterial Flora Of
Our Body Which Synthesize The Vitamin B–complex And
Vitamin K.
Toxic Effect Of Individual Drug –
Eg. Chloramphenicol Causes The Bone Marrow Depression.
