What is the best course of action for strep throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antibiotics plus.: If you have a sore throat with a positive swab for streptococcus pyogenes, i would recommend taking the course of antibiotics that was likely prescribed to you. I would stay hydrated and take any tylenol (acetaminophen) of Ibuprofen to help with any fevers, if any.
