No- this is strong medication and you need a complete course ( why do you have "left over" medication ?)

Take more medical advice about other courses of action perhaps.

i would personally recommend either not using it at all or going to your gp to get another dose for the full course, 3 days worth may temporarily get rid of it but its more likely to make a come back sooner rather then later
