I know people who take antibiotics every time they get so much as a fart jam. I remember having to tell somebody that taking antibiotics to treat the common cold does absolutely nothing to combat the virus, it only combats the effectiveness of the drug. People are far too stupid to be allowed to self medicate with antibiotics, they really should have been administered only at hospitals.

How are they handled in USA and Canada? Do you not require a prescription from a doctor?

Yes, then they gobble up the remaining pills after the infection has passed at a later date as if they were candy.
