good luck, and hopefully it clears up soon.
it could have been Cephalexin.. it says on the bottle.. but you know dr's handwriting.. and again with the accent.. i didn't want to ask him to repeat it 5 times.. i save the "Can you say that again" for the important stuff.. he let me read the side of the bottle it came from but i don't remember however.. he did say they used to use this medicine on people but it had some bad side effects that are not seen in animals.. .it is a very specific medicine that only kills bacteria in the throat and surrounding areas.. it is red. and she takes it 3x a day for 9 days.
