There is nothing you can take, the best thing is try not to speak at all, not even whisper. You have laryngitis, I get it all the ime. It is an infection of the voice box. It can only be cleared up with antibiotics. You can try tea with honey and lemon in it but you will still need antibiotics to make it go away. See your Dr ASAP.

I don't know that you voice will come back quickly but you can try honey and lime juice. Squeeze one lime into a glass, add some honey and stir well to mix. Sip a teaspoon every half an hour. This works every time to soothe the throat and minimise the discomfort.

There is nothing you can do. I recently had this and all I could do was drink hot drinks...It takes 1-2 weeks in my experience to get your voice back BUT up to 1 month to fully get it back

hhhmmm..drink some hot tea, then keep your mouth shut for fifteen minutes. It never fails me. Always works.
