Acute tonsillitis is usually treated with antibiotic medications such as Amoxicillin Clavulanate Potassium Dispersible Tablets or Cefixime Dispersible Tablets. Acute tonsillitis is often an acute inflammation of the tonsils caused by infection with beta-hemolytic streptococcus bacteria, with symptoms such as fever, severe sore throat, pain in swallowing, and a sensation of a foreign body in the throat. If acute inflammation of the tonsils occurs, anti-infective treatment with antibiotic drugs is usually required. The drugs of choice are penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics, and metronidazole may be added to combat anaerobic bacteria. If the patient is allergic to cephalosporins or penicillins, adult patients may be treated with fosfomycin antibiotics, and pediatric patients may be treated with macrolide antibiotics. If the swelling around the tonsils is obvious, or complicated by peritonsillar abscess, glucocorticosteroids (such as dexamethasone, etc.) should be added for symptomatic treatment or surgical incision and drainage of pus. The disease should actively seek medical treatment and standardize treatment after systematic examination by a specialist.
