Question

why antibiotics do not work against viral disease?

Answer 1

Antibiotics are medicines used to treat infections caused by bacteria. Antibiotics don't work against infections caused byviruses, such as colds and flu. ... It can also mean that they won't work when you really need them for a serious infection.

Answer 2

Antibiotics destroy the outer membrane of other germs.But virus does not have such type of thing.And they are active inside a living organism only.So if we destroy them, we destroy ourselves..
