You have probably got infection at tonsils. Take tablet amoxyclav 625 mg three times a day for 3 days. Take care.

Brief Answer:
Yes, it's available

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Yes, this medicine is available at all chemists, but it is a precribed drug . Some chemist may give this medicines only on prescription.

In addition to amoxyclav 625 mg three times a day for 3 days, you should also do saline gargles twice a day. A cough syrup like chericof 5 ml three times a day for 3 days will be helpful for soothing the throat region.

I hope this will help you.
Take care.
