Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service...
I've gone through your query in details...
I can understand your concern...

You seemed to have some attachments, but its showing 5 blank pages...

Unfortunately, Cefixime is an antibiotic and cannot be bought over the counter (be it Walgreens, Rite Aid or any other for the instance)...

You need to have a valid prescription in order to buy them...If you can't, another option will be to visit the nearest ER and request them briefing your complaints so that they can provide you with the necessary prescription...

Let me know if I can assist you further...

Take Care
Kind Regards
