ANSWER:

Antibiotics are not effective in common cold because cold are caused mainly by viruses and thus antibiotics are not useful in treating common cold.

EXPLANATION:

Antibiotics are effective in infections caused by bacteria not on viruses. Most common colds do not occur for long period and heals in 5-7 days, thus they do not need antibiotics to treat them.

Antibiotics are needed in serious infections or any cold that occurs for prolonged period.
