I've had this bad throat for about a week, and I've been managing it with saltwater gargles. But last night, I experienced severe pain in my ear, so I took ALTHROCIN 500. The ear pain seems to be gone this morning, but now my ear feels closed. Is it alright that I took ALTHROCIN, especially since I've already taken two tablets?
