Detailed explanation-1: -Many antibiotics, including penicillin, work by attacking the cell wall of bacteria. Specifically, the drugs prevent the bacteria from synthesizing a molecule in the cell wall called peptidoglycan, which provides the wall with the strength it needs to survive in the human body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Antibiotic intervention is an effective treatment strategy for many bacterial infections and liberates bacterial antigens and stimulatory products that can induce an inflammatory response.

Detailed explanation-3: -Antibiotics are used to treat or prevent some types of bacterial infection. They kill bacteria or prevent them from reproducing and spreading. Antibiotics aren’t effective against viral infections. This includes the common cold, flu, most coughs and sore throats.

Detailed explanation-4: -Antibiotics kill only bacteria. They don’t work against viruses. Most common colds and sore throats are caused by viruses. Sometimes when you take an antibiotic, the bacteria may be resistant or become resistant.
