What type of medication will help with what I'm assuming is an ear/throat infection?

Hello, Adrian! How are you?

It depends on the type and severity of the infection, but if it is a bacterial infection, an antibiotic will be needed and they are only available via doctor's prescription.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Do you get such infections regularly? Have you consulted your doctor?
