Like any antibiotic, amoxicillin will help to break down the infection in your tonsils, but it will certainly not have immediate relief. In general, it takes between 5-10 days of taking amoxicillin to be rid of strep throat. For an almost immediate relief of the pain I would first try taking some pain pills (Tylenol, ibuprofen, Alive, ect..). Another good remedy is to make a hot cup of green tea with some honey in it. The green tea helps reduce the swelling for quite a while. This seems to relieve a lot of people when they have strep throat.

Hope this helps
