Suggest Medication For Strep Throat With Cough

I have strep with a cough that won't go away. The cough medicine they prescribed makes me throw up. Along with a cough my throat is not on fire but feels like a 1000 knives are inside me. I am to the point I am tasting blood. What would you recommended?

streptococcus pneumonia causes pain and bloody sputum. Best option is to take a broad spectrum antibiotic for 5 days. Else give the sputum for culture and sensitivity. the result gives the antibiotics which works. You can try the antibiotic course that suits ur taste. if you are reluctant about not taking cough syrups, drink hot water mixed with honey..
