S05_E05 - Antibiotics - When They're Strong vs. When They're Wrong
With Special Guest: Dr. Caitlin Eccles-Radtke
Antibiotics have been around for almost a century, in that time they've been responsible for saving countless lives - in both humans and in livestock. But these meds have gone from medical marvels to "use with caution" in recent times. But what's driving this change? When are antibiotics actually called for and when are they ineffective? And what's the latest on these antibiotic resistant superbugs?
Antibiotics have stirred up some big conversations recently, and on Episode 5 of our show, we'll be joined by infectious disease expert Dr. Caitlin Eccles-Radtke to explore the myths, mishaps, and mind-blowing discoveries shaping antibiotic use today. Wanna know why your doctor side-eyes unnecessary Z-packs? This episode breaks it all down. Join us!
