One of the most compelling reasons for controversy is that bacteria adapt to this medication and come back even stronger. Another reason is that our bodies have good bacteria, which antibiotics can kill, causing problems in areas that we're not even trying to treat. Give your readers a fascinating look into the controversies of antibiotics.
