What is the best way to take tablets for pharyngitis?

  A patient inquired: What is the best medicine to take when he says he has throat discomfort? The cephalosporin antibiotics I took before were not effective! I replied, “You can take watermelon cream, golden voice, Huasu tablets and other tablets. The patient directly said, “Are you a doctor? Why don’t you say take fat sea, even a three-year-old child understands”. Then he left. At that time, I was directly baffled! After thinking deeply, I think it is necessary to talk about the effect of taking tablets.  Watermelon cream lozenges: is made of watermelon cream, ice chips, menthol and other traditional Chinese medicine processing and refining of the Chinese medicine tablets, with heat, summer heat, the production of fluid, throat and other functions, watermelon cream lozenges not only has the effect of anti-inflammatory pain, but also the role of the production of fluid to quench thirst. Therefore, it is more effective for throat disorders with dryness, swelling and pain in the throat and accompanied by hoarseness.  Huasu tablets: Huasu tablets contain iodine molecules, which have a strong bactericidal and anti-infective effect and can quickly kill various pathogenic microorganisms in the mouth and throat, including bacterial propagules, fungi, budding spores and viruses. It can effectively treat throat diseases. However, iodine is very irritating to oral mucous membrane tissue and should not be taken for a long time.  Precautions when using the tablets: (1) The tablets may cause allergic reactions to some people. For example, penicillin tablets have an antibacterial effect on acute pharyngitis, and a skin test should be done before taking them.  (2) The antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect of the tablets is extremely limited, if pharyngitis and fever and other systemic symptoms, only Han with the tablets is not enough, the tablets can only be used as an adjunctive medicine at this time.  (3) Which tablet is most suitable, often varies from person to person, the patient can choose through their own experience, or find a professional doctor to recommend the use.  (4) Children under 5 years of age, the teeth have not grown well, pharyngeal function is not perfect, there like to run activities, do not give tablets, so as not to slip or choke into the trachea accident.
