Strep isn't getting any better taking azithromycin. can i start taking amoxicillin too?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Throat: A physician might decide on obtaining a throat culture and sensitivity to see if your bacteria is resistant to the antibiotic that was currently prescribed. He may also decide to switch antibiotics to see if the bacteria is susceptible to another medicine. It would be advised to proceed under the guidance of a physician. Have a great day.
