Doctors bend to pharmceuticals, too. They prescribed a $40 “new” drug for me instead of the $4.00 Penicillen....for a tooth extraction.

I just had my wisdom teeth pulled and the drugs they prescribed worked very well for the pain. I can see how people get addicted to painkillers.

When it comes to antibiotics, there is a good reason why the old staples are not used - they don't work anymore. Using ineffective antibiotics/dosage makes you a petri dish of stronger bugs.

Putting aside the indiscriminate use, the goal is to wipe out the bugs and leave no resistant survivors to multiply.
