K my question is I had taken antibiotics prescribed to me about a month ago for tonsillitis, I didn’t finish them like i was supposed to . Well now a month later I have mononucleosis and the symptoms for tonsillitis are back again. Would it be safe for me to take the antibiotics again?

If your doctor thinks the tonsillitis needs treated with antibiotics, then yes, you need to take them. If you are thinking of taking some of the medication you had left over before, then the answer is no. People can safely take antibiotics within a short period of time of each other but this decision is up to your doctor. This time, if prescribed, take every one of the tabs!
Mono is a virus. Antibiotics will not help.
u can go back 2 the doctor and ask if u could use them again but most likely u wont be able 2 and he’ll prob prescirbe u another type of antibiotic!!???
They won’t do you any good.
When you get antibiotics TAKE THEM ALL. Otherwise the infection can come back even stronger.
The last thing you want to do to yourself is take a tiny amount of antibiotics that are not sufficient to completely kill an infection. When this happens, the bacteria that remain alive have a slight resistance to the antibiotic. That means the antibiotics might not work the next time, and as others have pointed out, antibiotics have no effect on the virus that causes mono.
They won’t work now.When you don’t finish taking antibiotics the infection or whatever it is comes back with a vengins.
