Many people in the world think that the only solution for a bacterial infection is antibiotics which is not true, if they were educated that if you have the infection long enough (and if it is not very strong) then you can become immune meaning that the antibiotics would be wasted. As well as this if antibiotics are perscribed then if people do not take the full course as instructed by their GP then the more drug resistant bacteria survive meaning that we're basically helping their evolution in not taking the antibiotics for the full course.

I need a substitute for antiobiotics?

The answer depends upon what you need it for... you can try taking massive amounts of 'probiotics'. I recommend jarrow brand jarrodophilius in the orangish yellow box. You can take 2-3 times the amount of what they say and that can help with tons of issues that usually need antibiotics. However, if you have something urgently wrong with you, such as a kidney infection, then you really need real antibiotics. This is also try with sexually transmitted diseases... you need real antibiotics to get over it. You can repost your question and state what the thing is you need antibiotics for, and then the answer would be more direct.
