influencer to the pathogenic resistance of humans to the usage
of antibiotics. The outcome effects of self-medication evolve

using to reduce it. A constant and common use of medications
without health professional guidance may lead to drug
resistance, incorrectness in drug usage, delay in proper medical
treatments and increased mortality.
