Have sore throat, runny nose (clear fluid) for a week. got antibiotic(cefdinir) from dr. took only 2 pills. think only have virus, is it ok to stop?

Call the doctor: Although you may be right, I strongly recommend you don't stop your medication without informing your doctor. He/she certainly has more knowledge about your current condition, so the doctor needs to be involved. Good luck.
