Good morning. Is Bactrim Forte a suitable remedy for strep throat? Two days ago I got this drug for viral pharyngitis but yesterday purulent infiltrates appeared and the sore throat when swallowing saliva is still large. Should I go to the doctor again? Will Bactrim help me?

Bactrim Forte is a chemotherapeutic agent used to treat infections of the respiratory tract, urinary system and gastrointestinal tract. This is an antimicrobial drug, by its action similar to antibiotics. It has an antimicrobial effect, the mechanism of which consists in inhibiting the activity of selected bacterial enzymes. As can be seen from the above description, it is a drug properly selected for the disease. It should be effective. I enclose the description of the preparation: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/8751/bactrim-forte-tabletki/ulotka/95702 You can also include symptomatic preparations in the treatment. A pharmacist within his competence may offer over-the-counter remedies for sore throat, which we wrote about here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/bol-gardla
