Description
An important look at the knowledge of antibiotics, their mode of action, and their efficient use. Antibiotics are medications that destroy or slow the growth of bacteria. They do this by killing bacteria and preventing them from multiplying, which is why they are indicated for the treatment of bacterial infections.
The purpose of this study is to determine the frequency of antibiotics in the "Isa Grezda" hospital in Gjakova during the COVID-19 pandemic, the treatment of infected patients, the study of the literature regarding the effectiveness of antibiotics in the COVID-19 virus.
Methodology- This is a descriptive research that aims to show the types of antibiotics used in the general hospital "Isa Grezda" in Gjakova during the COVID-19 pandemic. For data collection, sources such as documentation, protocols of medical visits, archives were used, where the cases and treatments received by infected patients during the period June-December 2020, 2021 were documented.
The results of the literature research have provided sufficient data about antibiotics and their classification, mode of action, mode of administration, management and their most efficient use.
Conclusions - From the results of this research, it can be concluded that the use of antibiotics in infected patients was high, due to bacterial co-infections that were common among patients with COVID-19. Antibiotics such as Ceftriaxone, Imipinem, Ciprofloxacin, Azithromycin have been some of the most prescribed antibiotics in patients infected with COVID-19.
