TEIS President Nurten Saydan stated that antibiotics should not be used without a doctor's recommendation and pharmacist's advice, warning that misuse can lead to antibiotic resistance and serious health problems. To prevent indiscriminate use, Saydan suggested that prescriptions be written using the active ingredient instead of the drug name, and that treatment should begin with antibiotics.
