Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You are taking benydreal. It is anti histamine drug with some sedative effect. But lump like sensation in throat is not due to that. You may have granular pharyngitis. It can cause this type of sensation. Warm saline gargle and antibiotics are useful in that. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
