No, because it is virus and viruses can`t be cured by antibiotics. Antibiotics are useful for curing bacterial infection.
----------------------------------
Antibiotics, by definition, can only kill bacteria. They are completely ineffective against viruses. However, they may prevent secondary bacterial infections that can occur as a result of severe infections, or certain susceptibilities of the patient.
There are no current antiviral medications for treatment of the rhinovirus (common cold) other than cough medicines and other supportive/comfort medications. It is generally encouraged to be treated with rest, isolation, and supportive/comfort measures when appropriate.
There are also no vaccines for the rhinovirus.
The flu virus (influenza) has vaccines available. These vaccines are strain specific, and thus must be administered annually for the anticipated prevalent strains.
There are also antiviral medications available for the influenza virus which must be administered early in the course of the disease for maximum effectiveness.
