Septic tonsillitis, also known as streptococcal tonsillitis, is contagious until the person has been on antibiotics for at least 24-48 hours. It is important to finish the full course of prescribed antibiotics to prevent spreading the infection to others. Close contacts may also need to be evaluated and treated if necessary.
