What Causes Sore Throat While On Fluvoxamine?

My 9 year old daughter is taking 25mg of Fluxoamine for GAD and OCD, she is 31kgs and 145cm tall. She has been complaining of a sore throat for the last few days. She has been on the Fluvoxamine for 2 weeks. The packet said a severe adverse effect can be a sore throat, is this dangerous?
