    It fights bad bacteria and sometimes fights (destroys in both cases) good bacteria.......

    It acts against bacterial infections.

    The word antibiotic comes from the Greek anti meaning 'against' and bios meaning 'life' (a bacterium is a life form).' Antibiotics are also known as antibacterials, and they are drugs used to treat infections caused by bacteria.
