Antibiotics increase body temperature.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 3 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that antibiotics increase body temperature?

Unclear. The retrieved items do not directly test whether antibiotics raise body temperature. One murine sepsis study found temperature remained consistent between antibiotic-treated groups, and a clinical cohort examined temperature as a predictor of antibiotic initiation rather than the reverse, so the evidence only partially bears on the claim.
