Wait a minute!  The Cochrane reviews are a great tool and have been helpful to me personally, anyway.  There's no need to dismiss them.

The problem is that people read "insufficient evidence of efficacy" and hear "evidence shows antibiotics aren't efficacious" when all the review is saying is "there haven't been enough well-designed studies to provide sufficient proof that they do work."  You can't make any kind of treatment recommendation at all from that.
