If your child?s fever has lasted three days despite taking Paracetamol and antibiotics, you should not give any new medicine on your own. Persistent fever may indicate a more serious infection or a condition that requires a doctor?s assessment. Please take your child to a paediatrician as soon as possible for examination and appropriate treatment. Until then, keep your child hydrated and monitor for any worsening symptoms.

The dosage of Cefolac-O prescribed for typhoid is standard to ensure the bacteria are fully eradicated and to prevent the infection from returning. Do not reduce the dose or stop the treatment early, even if you feel better within a few days, as this may lead to treatment failure or antibiotic resistance. It is important to complete the full 14-day course as advised by your doctor.
