Cipro is not the first line antibiotic of choice for pneumonia. Levaquin is the first choice. Levaquin is expensive. It is usually given IV for the first dose in order to speed up effectiveness, then by table form, one 500 mg per day for ten days.

It is always best to treat the symptoms and get some rest. Give your body time to fight this off. For the cough, hard candy or cough drops. Try an antihistamine for the runny nose. The sore throat will feel better as the mucus running down the throat from the nose slows. The headache will better with a NSAID.

Can taking halls cough drop cure a sore throat?

I don't know if Hall's Cough Drops has an herbal formula, so I don't think it can cure a sore throat. Herbal cough drops with echinacea and goldenseal are an excellent remedy though when taken with herbal capsules as well.
