Hi, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.
What is your age and Gender? Since how long do you have this Problem? Since you said you have a Sore throat, which means you are suffering from Pharyngitis. Kindly get yourself examined by a ENT Specialist so that he can examine and rule out any other health problem. Benylin is precribed for dry cough, but is contra indicated in various health issues. You have not mentioned if you have any other health issue. Kindly do not take any medicine until confirmed by your Doctor. You may require antibiotics if a Infection is confirmed as Benilyn and Reactine will just give you a Symptomatic relief.
Get adequate rest and drink plenty of fluids. Do warm water gargles several times a day.

Wish you Good Health, Take Care.
