What medicine is good for tonsillitis and pharyngitis?

Patient's question:

My child has had recurrent tonsillitis for the past two years, and each episode is accompanied by high fever. I'm really worried about his health if this continues. Could you please advise what medication is effective for tonsillitis?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is necessary to carefully check a complete blood count to confirm whether the infection is caused by bacteria. If it is bacterial infection, cefixime combined with erythromycin and other drugs can be used for treatment, and attention should be paid to using short-term corticosteroids to control body temperature. In addition to symptomatic treatment for tonsillitis, the patient also needs to pay attention to nursing care, such as proper diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, the patient should pay attention to choosing a diagnosis from a Class III-A hospital, so as to obtain a good therapeutic effect.
