    Take antibiotics ONLY when you need them

    Antibiotics ONLY treat certain infections caused by bacteria, such as:

    Some infections caused by bacteria can still get better without antibiotics.

    You DO NOT need antibiotics for some common bacterial infections, including many sinus infections and some ear infections.

    Antibiotics DO NOT work on viruses.

    Viruses are germs different from bacteria.

    • Colds and runny noses, even if the mucus is thick, yellow or green
    • Most sore throats (except strep throat)
    • Flu
