Best antibiotic for strep throat?

What are the best antibiotics for strep throat? I just went from MD and he told me that I have strep throat and wrote me what I should use for it. Will I be better with antibiotics?

Yes, if you have strep throat and your doctor gave you an antibiotic. It is a medicine that kills bacteria and usually the antibiotic used for strep throat is a form of penicillin. You can take penicillin as a pill, a liquid, or a shot. My mom gave me acetaminophen to get rid of aches, pains, and fever, tea and warm chicken soup. It's best to avoid spicy and acidic foods, such as orange juice, because they will irritate your tender throat.

Pen VK, or anything in the Amoxil family can be a very effective drug. If you are allergic to Pen VK, Biaxin 500mg twice daily for 7 days is a decent treatment, but the best drug available under RX: is zithromax. use 2 tablets immediately and 4 for the remaining 4 days. it stays in your system for a long time and fights off the infection. besides that rest and a bronchial pump are helpful.

Clarithromycin is specifically indicated for strept. and acute bronchitis.
500mg 2x a day for 9 days. It is very effective, you can feel it within the first day of taking it.
