Brief Answer: Refer below Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic! Based on the limited information given, and by the symtoms given like chronic cough, losing voice and death within 5 months may give the suspicion of cancer of throat or nearby regions. Kidney failure may also be related but it can occur independently based on coexisting conditions. I do not think that use of any antibiotic has caused any complications like these. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have have any clarifications. If you like my answers and wish me to answer in future, bring it to my attention: Dr Vasanth.
