Q: tested positive for strep would that be causing the yellow mucus coughing up and the sneezing covid test is negative they put me on cefdinir300mg?

: Although those aren't characteristic symptoms of a strep throat, cefdinir will eradicate strep. Your symptoms appear to be an associated viral upper respiratory tract infection or possibly a bacterial bronchitis. The latter can also be treated with cefdinir.
