Brief Answer:
No

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but unfourtanetly you can not take a perscribtion for an antibiotic online .. however antibiotics will help only if your infection is bacterial , while a viral infection is usually self limited and will not be relieved by an antibiotic ..
I would recommend that you continue on Tylenol and add a cough suppressant as dextromethorphan .. if you have phelgm then you should take an expectorant as Mucinex ..
