Brief Answer:
Let her take acetaminophen only!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this. This throat pain is probably caused by pharyngitis. The most common cause are viruses. We do not need antibiotics for this. I will recommend acetaminophen 1g thrice daily for this. There is no need to take nay further azee tablets. She will be fine. In addition to that, let her eat healthy and drink much fluids.

I hope this helps. I wish your wife well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
