I think the key with doctors is not to just blindly accept whatever prescription they shove at you.
Some things require the "nuclear option" of antibiotics. Most things don't. If its just a drug to treat symptoms, you're probably better off finding alternatives instead of a chemical cocktail.
I subscribe to "Sangamon's Principle" which is "simplest molecules possible" when ingesting for health or for recreational purposes. Its kept me pretty healthy so far.
