    Antibiotics are ineffective against viruses because viruses are not composed of cells. Antibiotics break down a bacteria's cell walls or stopping the bacteria's ability to repair its DNA. This is why it was advised not to take antibiotics for viral infections. It may lead to antibiotic resistance in the future.
