Hello,

For sore throat you may use salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. Use tablet amoxicillin and clavulinic acid 625mg twice a day for five days. Use syrup ascoryl two teaspoons thrice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
