Is rsv contagious if the person is on antibiotics?
As far as I know it is still contagious. The antibiotics help the symptoms, they do not cure the RSV. My 4 month old just got over RSV and his pediatritian gave him medicines and told us he was contagious for 8 days from when the symptoms first appeared. I have also heard they are contagious for 10 days from a friend.\ "Antibiotics are not effective treatments for viral illnesses such as RSV infection" That is quoted from the CDC so the answer is not only yes but also antibiotics do nothing for it

Can a viruses be cured using antibiotics?
Yes. But only by antiviral antibiotics, not antibacterial or antifungal or antiprotozoal antibiotics. Most antibiotics are antibacterial: such as penicillin, sulfa, cipro, rocephin, etc. The Herpes Simplex virus is a virus that can be attacked by an antibiotic, such as acyclovir. Just as with antibacterial antibiotics, antiviral antibiotics will become less effective over time as the viruses mutate to become more resistant. Therefore, these antibiotics should be used as judiciously as the other types of antibiotics.

Why antibiotics should not be overused give you short report PLEASE...?
antibiotics should not be over used because antibiotics taken unnecessarily may kill the beneficial bacteria in the body.
Why should't doctores over prescribe antibiotics?
Because the organisms that the antibiotics kill (to make you better) evolve resistance to the antibiotics when they are exposed to them. This means that the more the exposure (prescribing) the faster resistance develops. Antibiotics should therefore ONLY be used when really needed and taken EXACTLY as they are meant to. Stopping a dose of antibiotics before a full course of treatment is worse than over prescribing.
