Please take penicillin for a week at least.It will improve your acute laryngitis too,for that is what you have.Please also take tab .Chymoral forte thrice daily for 3 days,half a tab of cetrizine at night for a week and steam inhalation twice daily which will soothe the inflammation of your voice box.You should be fine in a couple of days.
