The rate of occurrence for BL-PE was 11 percent in those without traveler\u2019s diarrhoea (TD) or antibiotic use, 21 percent for those with TD and no antibiotic use, and 37 percent in those with both TD and antibiotic use. However, for southeast Asia, those numbers climbed to 14, 37, and 69 percent, respectively, in travelers to Southeast Asia, and to 23 percent, 47 percent, and 80 percent in travelers to South Asia.<\/p>\n<p id=\"94ba\" class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\"><strong class=\"markup--strong markup--p-strong\">Conclusion:<\/strong> The use of antibiotics by people with mild to moderate travellers diarrhoea actually increases the amount of antibiotic resistant strains in your intestine. Eventually, these strains will gradually disappear over a period of about 6 months. For mild to moderate illness, just take fluids and try to avoid antibiotics unless the diarrhoea persists or gets worse.<\/p>\n<p id=\"beb1\" class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p graf--trailing\"><em class=\"markup--em markup--p-em\">Thanks to<\/em><a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/isriya\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/isriya\/\"><em class=\"markup--em markup--p-em\"> Isriya Paireepairit<\/em><\/a><em class=\"markup--em markup--p-em\"> for his photo used as the featured image.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Should You Take Antibiotics for Travellers Diarrhoea?
