Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your tooth ache.

As per your history it seems to me that you are having acute irreversible pulpitis and the medication you are using is only pain killers though you need it, but main problem is infectious tooth which needs antibiotics.

Yes, You must change the medication. If I would have been your treatment doctor I would like to recommend the following medications.

Antibiotics like Amoxycilin clavulinic acid 625 mg thrice a day for 3 days to five days.

Non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs like Zerodol sp (Accelofenac +paracetamol +seratiopeptidase combination) and to prevent any of gastric u you also need pantoprazole 40 mg empty stomach in morning once daily.

Hope my answer will help you and visit us back if you have any further queries.

Regards
Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray.
