Marijuana is not safe if taken with or without taking antibiotics. It's safe to avoid any drugs while on antibiotics. It may decrease the absorption of medication and it also may increase throat symptoms
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
