A member asked:
Can i use emycin (erythromycin) antibiotic syrup for my 4 yr old who has a throat infection i bought the med 3 weeks ago but have not used it will it still work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tonsillitis: The syrup usually is only good for 14 days after being reconstituted with water. Also, there are many tonsillitis that are viral and not bacterial and will not respond to antibiotics. I would visit the pediatrician tomorrow.
