What Is The Treatment For Tonsillitis?
I am having a severe bout of tonsilitis now. The pain is unbearable. Problem is the pain relief wears out 3 hours after taking the medicine. Can I rotate ibuprofen 2 x 200mg with mefenamic acid 2 x 250mg in 3 hours interval. Any side effects I should be aware of?

the medicine dose is such that you can go upto six times in a dose which is maximum dose of each tablets
brufen and mefanic acid is good combination
you can rotate upto 6 tab a day you can repeat also at your choice given but not go beyond maximum dose
this is your answer
but for chronic recurent tonsiltis you need to add antibiotics for reducing infections also
