I just went to the doctor after having a horrible cough and sore throat for over 10 days that would not go away. My doctor has prescribed cephalexin, an antibiotic, as well as a cough syrup with codeine. Although, I have been Surfing the web and have read that antibiotics are really no good for bronchitis. Hmmm......????
