Course Overview
This is a Live Webinar event that will be held on November 17, 2024 - 1pm PST, 4pm EST.

Antibacterial drugs are a major contributor to the massive increase in lifespan during the twentieth century. They have also been incredibly controversial. Paradoxically being some of the safest drugs in the entire pharmacopeia and causing life-threatening allergies, secondary infections, and resistance. This is a fascinating category of drugs that are widely used by our patients with lots of implications and interactions with Chinese medicine. This seminar examines this class of drugs and, by necessity, discusses various types of bacteria. Within each class of antibacterials, we will look at other functions, red flag issues, mechanisms of action, adverse effects, and any potential interactions. Chinese medical practitioners often have very strong feelings about antibiotics, this course will challenge and support a lot of commonly held beliefs and help us be better practitioners for our patients.

The recordings will be made available for you to review after the event!
