I believe it doesn't - only - why would you want to take an antibiotic?
anti = against  biosis=life; an against life product - it would only impair
the person's immune system.

A colloid does not interreact with a drug unless it contained fungal,
bacterial or viral contamination.

Avoid antibiotics, take the CS, continue sex, continue the pill.
