Suggest Whether I Need To Take Germifloxacin Or Forenza For Sore Throat

I have been asked to alternate between Germifloxacin and Forenza whenever I get a sore throat or blocked sinuses. I mean to say that I have to finish a course of one and the next time I have the same symptoms I should change the medication to the other one. Please advice.

Hi

For sore throat a prescribed course of Forenza would be more effective however if you allergic to Forenza another antibiotic like Germifloxacin can be equally effective.

If you are OK with Forenza and got cured with a prescribed course there is no need to shift to Germifloxacin if the same problem recurs in the future.

Hope to have answered your query.
