neither of these antibiotics will work against viruses. Antibiotics work for bacterial infections, but viral infections just have to run their course. Some over the counter drugs will alleviate symptoms to viral infections but the body is the only thing that can get rid of the viral infection.

Neither. E-mycin and Cipro are antibiotics and are effective against bacteria, not viruses.
