Question
Are the antibiotics given to humans and animals the same? Why?
Solution
Different types of diseases harm animals as well. They also become infected with bacteria, viruses, and fungi. As a result, the veterinary specialist prescribes antibiotics to them during their therapy. Because the germs that infect humans are of different species than the pathogens that infect animals, some antibiotics are different. Only a few are identical to human antibiotics.
