Sumamed is an antibacterial drug containing a macrolide antibiotic - Azithromycin. Azithromycin is characterized by a high concentration in infected tissues and a long half-life, which makes it possible to reduce the duration of treatment to 1-5 days. Therefore, the fact that you have finished administering an antibiotic is not the same as the end of therapy, because the antibiotic persists in the body for about 5-7 days. You did not specify the age of your daughter, so it is difficult to propose a specific method of treatment based on such a short description. Before making an appointment with your pediatrician for follow-up, you can use symptomatic medications for sore throats, such as Tantum verde: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/77403/tantum-verde-aerozol/apteki?pvid=18930#internetowe Icelandic syrup: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/76618/syrop-islandzki-syrop/apteki?pvid=182732#internetowe
