Even a single course of antibiotics can fuck you up depending on what the drug is, what the dose is, and how your body reacts

https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DrugSafety/ucm500143.htm

An FDA safety review has shown that fluoroquinolones when used systemically (i.e. tablets, capsules, and injectable) are associated with disabling and potentially permanent serious side effects that can occur together. These side effects can involve the tendons, muscles, joints, nerves, and central nervous system.

As a result, we are requiring the drug labels and Medication Guides for all fluoroquinolone antibacterial drugs to be updated to reflect this new safety information. We are continuing to investigate safety issues with fluoroquinolones and will update the public with additional information if it becomes available.

Keep in mind the FDA only recently released these warnings and these are among the most commonly used and prescribed antibiotics.

Any kind of antibiotics can cause issues with digestive systems that can take a long time to resolve.

Would avoid unless absolutely necessary
