Homeopathy but...: Homeopathy is very effective for most childhood illnesses. Kids usually love it- the remedies are small pellets that taste like sugar ; melt in your mouth. It's recommended that strep be treated with antibiotics as untreated strep can very rarely turn into rheumatic fever. Homeopathy may also prevent rheumatic fever but this has not been proven.A single penicillin shot can treat strep.See comment:.

Proper dx/ shot: Kids whose illness or behavior means a predictable failure with oral meds can be treated for strep with a single shot of penicillin.A confirmatory test should always precede treatment. A flu shot in the early fall can many times avoid the issue, if not, a simple focus on keeping the kid hydrated is the main treatment. The meds are overrated.
