Antibiotics are a common medication. Doctors prescribe antibiotics to fight bacteria. Antibiotics are the most powerful medicines that fight certain infections. It can save lives when people use it properly. Antibiotics destroy bacteria.
Usually, the immune system kills bacteria in the body with the help of White blood cells.
Sometimes the immune system cannot fight bacteria. In that scenario, doctors suggest antibiotics to patients.  
Penicillin was the first antibiotic. Ampicillin, amoxicillin, and penicillin G are penicillin-based antibiotics and are still available to treat a variety of infections.

Scientists at the University of Illinois Chicago and Harvard University have developed an antibiotic that could give medicine a new weapon to fight drug-resistant bacteria and the diseases they cause. The antibiotic, cresomycin, described in Science, effectively suppresses pathogenic bacteria that have become resistant to many commonly prescribed antimicrobial drugs.

Medblr, I think we ought to have an antibiotics bracket. Just for fun. Everyone can submit their favorite antibiotic regimens and write propaganda for them (or anti-propaganda for the ones you hate) before we crown the one true antibiotic (regimen). Doesn’t have to be a single medication, it can be a combo. Here’s some of what I’m thinking of including:
vanc/zosyn
Azithromycin
Amp/gent
Rifampin/isoniazid/pyrazinamide/ethambutol
Augmentin
Cephalexin
Vanc/ceftriaxone
Amphotericin
Nitrofurantoin
Vote however you want—what you prescribe most, best side effect profile, most interesting mechanism, vibes, whatever. Let me know what other antibiotics you think I should include!

I was reading an (open source) journal article last night about the medical treatment of American POWs in the War of 1812.
Tumblr media
A British officer inspecting the sick in hospital, 1813.
The gist of the article is that American claims of mistreatment are overblown, and most prisoners received adequate medical care (under the circumstances) from their British captors. Relevant to my interests in both military history and the history of medicine, it gives an overview of the treatment of wounds and illness and the results. The author notes:
Few formal conventions dealt with the treatment of prisoners of war during the period. While it was common for combatant nations to agree upon temporary conventions once hostilities commenced, generally it was quasi-chivalric sentiments, notions of Christian conduct, and a sense of humanitarian obligation that moderated treatment of prisoners, allowing, for example, parole for officers and sometimes for enlisted personnel and care for sick and wounded soldiers.
It seems odd that military personnel could switch between trying to kill the enemy and trying to save his life with medical intervention, but it's well-known that soldiers actually don't like killing people (see Men Against Fire by S.L.A. Marshall and numerous other studies).

On the seventh day the stitches were taken out, in spite of which there was a report of erysipelas in the evening papers.
Erysipelas (more common know as St. Anthony's fire in English, apperently. In Dutch we call in wound rose) is a bacterial skin infection, leading to swelling, redness and fever. Left untreated - and in the time this story was published, 1924, the invention of broad-spectrum antibiotics like pencilin was still several years away - it can lead to some serious complications like blood clots, blood poisoning or meningitis

Medicine in Castlevania
Tumblr media
Had a talk about this topic with @autumnmobile12 and promised I was gonna write a bit about it.
There is the big question, what kind of medicine the vampires have available in the Netflix version of Castlevania. After all Lisa goes to Dracula to learn about medicine and does so. And we know that the knowledge available is far ahead of the time that the series is set (mainly 1475 and 1476).
We see a lot of chemical equipment in Dracula's laboratory, but of course we cannot say, what it does.
The one thing we know is that they know about antibiotics. This is based on Lisa giving the old woman in the village a medication for her cough made from mold. Which is fairly certainly penicillin.
Given how penicillin in the real world was discovered, we can assume two more things from this. In the real world it was discovered, by some spores from a certain kind of mold (one, that primarily grows on melons and sometime on citrus fruits) getting on a petri dish, where they were cultivating bacteria cultures, and then killing the bacteria. Hence, them knowing about penicillin does imply that they know about how to grow bacteria cultures - and hence know about bacteria. After all you would not give someone antibiotics without knowing about bacteria!
Another thing we know is, that Lisa in her own laboratory in Lupu has a centrifuge. Usually centrifuges are used either in some chemical processes, but more likely is, that it is used in blood tests. Which would make it clear that they have some knowledge of the components of blood. This also does imply that they can draw blood in a somewhat orderly manner.
So, in the real world penicillin was discovered in 1928, while blood tests go back to the 18th century.
Some other stuff that was discovered medically in the early 20th century would be insulin (which originally was made from the organs of animals, which I absolutely could see to be something that the vampires in Castlevania have figured out) and vitamins and their importance for the human body.
In the about 100 years before that, other important stuff was discovered. Aspirin being one such thing, as it was originally made from the bark of willow and I very much assume that they have already access to. X-Rays, too, being such a thing. Though I am not entirely certain about these, because while they do have electricity, I am not entirely certain how much they understand about electricity. Something I am rather certain about is general anesthesia, which was discovered in 1849 in the real world.
Vaccines were discovered technically in 1799, but it took until 1890s, until they figured out to prepare dead vaccines, that would just train your immune system, instead of giving your a minor infection. But yes, I am fairly certain that they do know about vaccines.
Some other discoveries, that would be around in the 1920s, are kinda dependend on how well the understanding of electricity is. Because the only electricity we see is in electric light. So, it is hard to say whether they have electro cardiography for example. Though obviously it would help with the survivability of surgery.
I am not entirely certain, whether they might have some other medications that need modern chemical equipment.
Another thing I am fairly certain they have, is proper microscopes, given that those go back really far back and even in the middle ages they had some good ones and they probably have access to much better ones in this world.
But just to imagine, how much the knowledge of bacteria, fungi and maybe viruses would help survivability. Just knowing to desinfect hands before a surgery (something we see Lisa do) and such would do a lot. Heck, antibiotics would greatly help the survivability of the black death and of course vaccines would do so much more. So, if they really end up sharing that knowledge in the end of the series, the next few centuries would have a very different outcome.
(I might also ramble a bit about technology in that world, if anyone is interested.)
Tagging @udaberriwrites and @lena-hills, too, because they might be interested.

it's so fitting and clever that one of house's specialties is infectious disease (the other is nephrology, both fall under internal medicine - which, unrelated, is also thirteen's specialty). it's such a small detail, but it seems to me the writers did that deliberately because house's diagnostic style is so clearly inspired and shaped by ID, even when he isn't diagnosing a patient with an infection - his constant insistence on thorough and accurate histories (and getting annoyed when his fellows fail to get them), using clues outside the patient's symptoms alone, digging into patients' lives to find more information, etc
i read about ID docs diagonising someone who wasn't getting better with treatment with lyme disease in 5 minutes out of clinic which saved them from unnecessary surgery, and figuring out someone has psittacosis because of the bird magazine they brought to the hospital. if that's not some the most house-sounding shit ever i don't know what is

The lab study from researchers at the University of Copenhagen utilized an artificial version of an enzyme that's naturally produced by bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria), and used it to eradicate Staphylococcus aureus, or golden staph, in biopsy samples from people with skin lymphoma.
"To people who are severely ill with skin lymphoma, staphylococci can be a huge, sometimes insoluble problem, as many are infected with a type of Staphylococcus aureus that is resistant to antibiotics," explains immunologist Niels Ødum of the University of Copenhagen.
"That is why we are careful not to give antibiotics to everyone, because we do not want to have to deal with more resistant bacteria. Therefore, it is important that we find new ways of treating – and not the least to prevent – these infections," explains Ødum.

Flucloxacillin: another pencillin, this time the most commonly prescribed narrow-spectrum penicillinase-resistant penicillin in the UK. Apparently, it was not marketed much in the US and Canada, where dicloxacillin filled its role. Flucloxacillin is used almost exclusively for gram positive infections, especially Staph aureus, though it can be also be used for pre-op prophylaxis.
Zosyn (pip/tazo): One of the big guns. Like augmentin, this combo therapy includes both a penicillin and a beta-lactamase inhibitor; unlike augmentin, it covers pseudomonas. Zosyn is crucial for treating nosocomial infections and often one of the first drugs we reach for when empirically broadening antibiotics. It is also first line for neutropenic fever.
