Can flucloxacillin be taken for tonsillitis?

The cause for tonsillitis is either viral infections or streptococcal infection. You do not need antibiotic for viral infections. The bacteria which causes tonsillitis is streptococci. Streptococci practically never produce beta lactamase enzyme. Flucloxacillin is used to treat the beta lactamase producing bacteria. The antibacterial action of flucloxacillin itself is very less as compared to penicillin or ampicillin. So flucloxacillin for tonsillitis is a bad choice.

Can you take paracetomol while on flucloxacillin?

Yes you can take both paracetamol and flucloxacillin. There is no known significant interaction between either drugs and both can be taken together in moderation by following the recommended dose. As flucloxacillin starts to destroy the infection the pain will soon subside and paracetamol may be stopped. However flucloxacillin should be taken for the full duration of the treatment. Even if you are feeling better it is important to finish the antibiotic treatment course.
