“抗生素”一词是一个历史悠久但不准确的术语。如今，“抗生素”也被用于其他适应症，而“非抗生素”则被重新用于传染病。这种情况要求修订抗病原性药物的术语。正确使用术语将有助于合理的抗病原性治疗和对药物再利用的理解。
The word 'antibiotics' is an historical, but imprecise, term. Today, 'antibiotics' are also used for other indications and 'non-antibiotics' are repurposed for infectious diseases. This situation calls for a revision of antipathogenic drug terminology. The use of correct terms will facilitate rational antipathogenic treatment and understanding of drug repurposing.
