Hi, thanks for the query.
If I were your treating doctor, for best drug of choice you may go for throat swab , culture and antibiotic sensitivity.
I would prescribe you , antiseptic mouthwash , Plenty of fluids ,anti inflammatory , analgesic Paracetemol + Ibuprofen combination ,Macrolide Antibiotic azithromycin & Vit c.
Hope this helps , Thanks.
