You do realize that antibiotics are completely ineffective against a cold? You're wrecking your digestive system and risking antibiotic resistance for nothing. If your doctor is prescribing antibiotics, either they're a terrible doctor, or they're a bad doctor and you're a worse patient.

Yes, sorry. That's just language barrier raising it's head. What I meant was strep throat, obviously there's not much of a point in taking antibiotics for a viral infection.

I don't need a doctor to inspect my tonsils, I have access to a phone with a flashlight.

And for what it's worth, I think I've taken antibiotics twice in the past 4 years. Always according to the instructions on the packaging.
