Hi Chrissy, The best person to ask is your doctor. While online sites are great for getting information that will help you ask all the right questions, they can not take the place of your doctor's solid medical advice.   There are two different types of Pink Eye( conjunctivitis.)  One will just run its course without medicine in about 10 days. The second is bacterial and will require an antibiotic. It's best to confirm with your doctor which one you have so you are not taking medicine for the wrong reasons. Here is a link to some information about Pink Eye.   Take care and stay in touch! Let us know how you are doing!Vicki M
