You would be surprised at all the home brewed medicines my grandmother learned from her mother - and one thing they were making was basically aspirin - and various distillations with alcohol, garlic, honey, onions and that home made aspirin that worked wonders on sore throats, colds and other ailments
As for other things - the Germans in WWI were using onions and garlic as antiseptics when they ran out of drugs late in the war - and they worked quite well
attached some research on the effectivity of onions on fighting bacterial infections
