Irrational Antibiotics Combinations Should be Banned in India.

Inappropriate unapproved and unacceptable combinations of antibiotics are the important reasons for antibiotics resistance in many under developed and in developing countries like India. This may affects the world communities in some way or other. So it needs attention and these types of antibiotics combinations should be banned in India.
