Can Calvepen Help To Relive From Tooth Ache And Infection?
Doctor, I have a flaring toothache caused by tooth infection, it's a saturday night so the dentist is not open tomorrow. However I have come Calvepen left over from when I had tonsilitis. Would this provide any temporary relief before I can get to the dentist?

Thanks for using Health Care Magic.
Read your query.
Calvepen is antibiotic (pencillin) which is used to treat infections.
For the pain you can have a ibuprofen ( if you are not allergic to any medicine).
Antibiotics are to be taken on prescription ,call your dentist office and start with the antibiotic .
Do salt water gargling.
Hope this was helpful.
Thanks and regards.
