Bacterial, Viral, Fungal, and Parasitic Infections

The key to the successful treatment of infections is identifying the pathogen accurately.  Many viral respiratory infections and seasonal allergies are treated with antibiotics, which provide no benefit in treating allergies or viral infections.  Inappropriately prescribed antibiotics can lead to resistant bacterial infections, C. diff diarrhea, and yeast infections.
