Prescribed Amoxicillin For Acute Pharyngitis. Wondering If Methoprednisolone Will Help
I have been to two doctors and one diagnosed me with acute pharyngitis and another doctor diagnosed me with angina or something. It was for my throat and it s been so painful I haven t been able to eat for a while. I was prescribed amoxicilan for the acute pharyngitis and I was wondering if taking methoprednesolon would help.

hello. please dont take methylprednisolone as if you are having an infection, it will flare up and worsen your condition. please continue the amoxicillin and start warm salt water gargling 3-4 times a day. thanks
