Because the most resistant bacteria will be the last to die. If you stop the course before every bacterium is dead the resistant survivors will multiply and be much harder to kill next time.
Plus eventually new totally resistant strains would develop somewhere in the world and that might mean the end of the human race.
So EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, EVERY TIME must finish the prescribed course.

Dramatic, but true.
Every time someone doesn't finish their course, they risk creating increasingly-resistant strains of the same bacteria.
At best, you don't clear the infection and have to take a second course of antibiotics.
At worse, you find yourself with an infection that you can't clear.
For the sake of a couple of days extra effort, just finish the prescribed course.

If you are taking antibiotics and skipped a day will the antibiotics work?
I would suggest that your contact the physician who prescribed you the antibiotics. Antibiotics are prescribed for many conditions and they always must be finished unless otherwise directed by your doctor. People generally feel better within days and think they can stop their antibiotics. Infections can return if you do not finish the prescribed course. Bacteria can develop a tolerance to our antibiotics due to many people not finishing the job. Ask a doctor if taking a probiotic during or after a treatment is okay to get help with digestion during a treatment and restore beneficial bacteria needed in the body.

When do you not take antibiotics?
You should only stop taking antibiotics only when directed by your doctor. If your doctor gave you one bottle of antibiotics as your prescription, finish the whole bottle using the instructions on the bottle. Never stop taking antibiotics halfway through your prescription.If you do stop without finishing the prescription, the hidden bacteria in your body will make a comeback, and may be as strong as ever. Thus, to ensure that all the harmful bacteria die, you must finish the prescription unless otherwise directed by a doctor.Basically, only when you have finished the prescribed course or the doctor tells you otherwise, or if you have an adverse reaction. If you stop just because you are feeling better, you will likely relapse.
Can you take antibiotics with Ibuprofen?
Yes you may take ibuprofen while on antibiotics, but you must be aware of any problems within your GI tract, as Ibuprofen may cause GI bleeds in those who are susceptible.

Always follow the directions on the bottles of your medications.
