It must be a pill - the antibiotic

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, albeit short and specific.
Noted your history of sore in nose that probably is ulcerated and you think that you were prescribed a pill.
Yes, most probably it must be an antibiotic as the sores in the nose can attained serious abscess or cellulitis. I would advise you to get a proper prescription of an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines after clinical evaluation and examination by a Doctor, preferably an ENT.
