Are you taking the full course of antibiotics each time you get strep? If you're not, then you could have an antibiotic-resistant strain related to only taking part of the course of antibiotics.





Otherwise, talk to your doctor. You may need to have your tonsils taken out, or you may need a stronger antibiotic - if you're taking the full ten days of amoxicillin or whatever is being prescribed, and the bacteria is still hanging out in your throat, there's another case of strep just waiting to strike. Your doctor may be able to run another throat culture after you finish your antibiotics and see if the bacteria is completely gone.I keep getting strept throught is there any advice how to not keep getting it?
You are like me, I catch strep very easily! Wash your hands alot, stay away from people who have strep. That is all you can do! Good Luck!
Maybe you need to take your tonsils out....Or maybe try getting more vitamins in your diet.
The most important thing you can do for yourself is start a vitamin and mineral program. The next important thing is start a series of probiotics. If you can, stop taking anti-biotics.





Your immune system is down...that's what your strep throat is telling you. Cold sores, too, flare up when the system is not strong enough to fight the re-infections.





The immune system is your body's own fighting machine. It needs certain things to stay strong. The average diet today is lacking in many essentials to maintain the immune system in peak condition. Foods are overcooked, overprocessed and grown in depleted fields. Add to that the stress of everyday life, and you have an immune system that is part of your illness.





Get a good multi-vitamin/mineral formula. In case you don't know what I mean by 'good' call PURITAN'S PRIDE (a vitamin company) and ask them to send you a catalog. In the catalog you will find a number of good vitamin formulas. Study them to learn about what can and should be in a multi-vitamin/mineral formula. There are some OK vitamins in the drug store, and you can decide where to get them after you learn what to look for. You can use vitamin catalogs almost as text books. Many of them advise what to take for certain things, joints, vision, strong bones, etc.





Another good vitamin company is SWANSON Health Products. They also have multi-vitamins and they have Probiotics. Probiotics are the good bacteria that live in your intestines and help you digest food properly. When you take anti-biotics they kill the bad AND the good bacteria. Then your immune system can't be strong enough to fight the infections because your food is not being absorbed properly.





I'll stop here and give you the numbers for the above two companies. Help yourself to good health. Call for these catalogs then get started.

An iodine based gargle like Betadine kills strep before it takes hold. My sympathies.
What has been done to determine why your resistance is so low.. Is it a confirmed strep infection? There is apparently an underlying condition which prevents you from fighting off infection.. the immune system primarily. Being rather sluggish.. May want to get another opinion and start looking for the cause rather than treating the results.
when i was younger and i didn't sleep or eat properly I ended up with strep everytime I caught a cold. Now I find at the first hint of the sniffles I take care of it, relax sleep, eat well and take my vitamins I wont get.





Wash your hands more to, that goes for alot of illnesses
