That is a bad choice. You do not kill the mouse with gun. When the tiger comes, you my end up with a stick in your hand. Please use the antibiotics sensibly. Future generations should not call you gullible. You have to go for culture of the throat for strep bacteria. If the facility is not available, then you have to use Tablet penicillin for sore throat. tablet penicillin 250 mg three time a day for ten days, empirically.

Clindamycin is reserved drug for severe type of infection. It should not be used for strep throat, which can be cleared very easily.

Tylenol 500mg is it similar to Tylenol 3?

yes but Tylenol three has codiene in it which means you need a prescription to obtain Tylenol 3 really contains codeine, but that is not all. Tylenol 3 contains only 300mg of acetaminophen, almost half of 500mg in Extra Strength, Tylenol PM or Tylenol 500). It is very important, as the maximum dosage of acetaminophen must not be exceeded (1000mg at a time, or 4000mg during the day).
