Profound alterations of intestinal microbiota following a single dose of Antibiotics

A few examples of how quickly things could change and have possible long term health consequences.
So what about a single dose of Fin, or how about four months of Accutane?
Its not hard to imagine similar thoughts here could apply when it comes to health consequence.
This could probably apply to basic food intake as well or dietary choices, to a lesser degree.

The effects of antibiotics on the microbiome throughout development and alternative approaches for therapeutic modulation


Health consequences linked to the disruption of human-associated microbiota involving antibiotic use during development and adulthood. Red lines indicate that a single dose of antibiotics within the time period has been linked to a health consequence, whereas a dotted red line indicates that multiple doses of antibiotics within the time period are required to observe a link

Profound Alterations of Intestinal Microbiota following a Single Dose of Clindamycin Results in Sustained Susceptibility to Clostridium difficile -Induced Colitis

Long-term changes in human colonic Bifidobacterium populations induced by a 5-day oral amoxicillin-clavulanic acid treatment

Again with my play on words,
Profound Alterations of Intestinal Microbiota following a Single Dose of Finasteride Results in Sustained Susceptibility to PFS

This to me could also be good reasoning why PFS is sort of this abstract disease, with many non-specific symptoms that tend to be all over the place.
