Recurring septic throat

Hi I'm trying to sus out a constitutional remedy for my daughter she has on going bacterial throat infections in the last nine months, she is six years old, for two of these we have had to employ an antibiotic. It is almost always accompanied by a croupy barking cough. I would take her to a homeopath but I have found that a lot of the local ones give you a remedy and charge €70 and then if it doesn't work they bring you back for another consultation and then another and I can't see why they just don't go back over the file as nothing changes in the meantime. Would be grateful for advice.

Please give her three doses of pulsatilla 30c daily at a gap of 4 hours for two days. Please observe change in her symptoms and report after 7 days.

Please follow homeopathic restrictions like no coffee, no raw onion/garlic, not to eat or drink anything within 15 minutes before or after taking medicine.
