Explicação
The drugs that inhibit the growth of disease-causing organisms and are used to treat infections are referred to as antibiotics.
Antibiotics are medications that target bacteria and are used to treat and prevent bacterial infections. They can either kill bacteria or stop them from reproducing, allowing the body's natural defenses to eliminate them.
