Study finds coffee can mess with how certain antibiotics work
A recent study reveals that caffeine can hinder the effectiveness of certain antibiotics, particularly against E. coli. Caffeine triggers a response in E. coli, reducing the amount of antibiotic that enters the bacterial cells. This interaction highlights the potential impact of everyday substances on antibiotic efficacy, suggesting a need for further research and consideration in treatment strategies.
