hi, my 3year old son has fever accompanied with cough since the last 7 days, for the first 3 days, augmentin duo was given, he didnt respond so we took him to a paedtrn she suggested a blood and urine test, mild traces of urine infection was detected. So Doc suggested Keflor and Bricarex for the cough. my son was fine without fever for 3 days( antibiotic is still on) but 4th day fever upto 101.8 F is back and has come down with a crocin, but i dred it will shoot up again. Pls advise.
Hi madam, cough and fever suggest either an upper or lower respiratory tract infection, which most of the time its viral, that's why the antibiotic didn't help with Chat Doctor.  But before that I recommend doing a chest x-ray to exclude emphysema or abscess into the lungs .if your child exhibits a symptom of upper respiratory tract infection like runny nose or snoring he might have sinusitis which requires high dose and prolonged cause of antibiotics. I hope this is helpful
