I have a bad sore throat and was just started taking prednisone 1mg (11:30am) and singulair 10mg (8pm). can i take tyelnol or ibuprofen for pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doctor can examine: Throat pain can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or another cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, one sees a doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep). A couple days of Tylenol (acetaminophen) or Motrin (ibuprofen) can temporarily decrease pain.
