Eli5 – why do you take antibiotics as a course and not all at once?

930 views

I’ve just started an antibiotics course which is 4 times a day for 10 days and that got me wondering if they would be just as effective if I took them all and why not.

My great aunt used to always take them all at once, swore by it she was one of them old people that wouldn’t listen to common sense. Loved nothing more than washing her phone in the bath every other month also then wondering why it broke… she died a few years back at the age of 98, had a heart attack whist cleaning her lights up a ladder they think. Don’t make them like that anymore!
