Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Well, Cifran CT is an antibiotic and you should always take antibiotic in its complete course not for just a day. So, to reduce infection significantly, you should take antibiotics for atleast 3 days.

Also, if you have a tooth infection then antibiotics can give you temporary relief and the symptoms can flare-up again and again.

So, my suggestion is to consult an Oral Physician and get an x-ray of the tooth done. If there is deep infection in tooth then root canal treatment of the tooth can be done followed by a course of antibiotics and painkillers for relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
