Is it safe to take Augumentin 625 three times a day and Combiflam as needed for a sore throat and pain when swallowing on the right side that started this morning?
Combiflam (ibuprofen/paracetamol) is generally safe to take as needed for pain relief, provided you have no stomach or kidney issues. However, Augmentin 625 (amoxicillin/clavulanate) is a strong antibiotic. Taking it three times a day may be too high a dose and can cause stomach upset. Since sudden sore throats are often viral, antibiotics may not even be necessary. Please consult a doctor before starting Augmentin so they can examine your throat and prescribe the correct treatment.
