A member asked:
My daughter was on amoxicillin for 3 days prior to being exposed to strep. is it still possible she can get it even though she's been on her meds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Since strep is killed off by amoxicillin, she is not going to get a new strep infection while on it.It will not prevent her from getting a virus that sometimes mimics a strep infection.
