Yes I’ve got a massive stockpile of antibiotics which I didn’t take! Tummy ache? Antibiotics! Dislocated shoulder. Antibiotics! Tinnitus? Antibiotics! I know when to take them and that is rarely if ever but I’m bloody well snagging them as I have a prescription fee exemption :)

Why do people pretend I said vitamin D isn't useful? I'm not saying vitamins don't work or anything remotely similar. I'm just careful of what self medicating people report.

The fact that plenty of people are reporting that homoeopathy is working for them is enough reason to be careful of whatever people self report. Just to make sure nobody misunderstands me, I'm not comparing vitamins to homoeopathy.

The overuse of antibiotics is a serious problem that can and will affect all of us eventually. Many antibiotics that were effective in the past simply no longer work against the bacteria that are out there today and there is only so far we can go before we'll have to try a completely different approach. Everyone expects a pill but antibiotics should only be taken when there is strong reason to believe that a *bacterial* infection is likely.

In an increasing number of cases, antibiotics actively hurt the patient by wiping out good and necessary bacteria too. In some countries the use of antibiotics is completely off the rails. When we finally run out of working options we'll be back to a few hundred years ago, except that it's now a disaster of our own making. If we would have shown more restraint, we might never have run into issues.

It's not just human healthcare either. In some places livestock is preventively medicated with antibiotics, so more animals can be held in the same area. That's just flying too closely to the sun.
