Medikamente zur Infektionsbehandlung

An infection is caused by the over-growth of a micro-organism somewhere in the body. Micro-organisms include bacteria, viruses and fungi amongst others. Bacterial infections are treated with antibiotics such as Amoxicillin, Erythromycin und Ciprofloxacin. There are many different types of antibiotic, with different ways of working; the choice depends on the type of infection you have. Fungi commonly cause skin infections such as Fußpilz und Ringelflechte. Antifungal medicines like Miconazol und nystatin can be taken by mouth or applied directly to the affected area. Aciclovir is an antiviral medicine used to treat viral infections like Gürtelrose and herpes.
