Hello dear

Welcome to Health care magic family .
I have evaluated your concern in depth .

@ Augmentin duo is fine , take without hesitation and start as per dosage
guidelines along with that I suggest following for better recovery

$ Gargles with salted lukewarm water and peppermint oil 3 times a day .
$ Avoid all oily , spicy , chilled beverages , ice creams , dairy fat , junk
foods , chocolates .
$ Avoid exposure to excess cold .
$ Maintain hygiene of oral cavity and chest , face .
$ Maintain hydration , balanced nutritious diet .
$ Addition of decongestant and cough syrup will help to recover faster .
