How should cold symptoms and a persistent 100?F fever be managed if self-treatment with amoxicillin, paracetamol, and cetirizine has not provided relief, and is switching to a stronger antibiotic medically appropriate?

Asked by Male, 23 · 14 days ago

Do not switch to a stronger antibiotic. Common colds are viral, so antibiotics like amoxicillin cannot treat them and may cause unnecessary side effects. A 100?F fever is a mild, normal sign of your body fighting off the virus. For now, the safest approach is to focus on rest, staying hydrated, and using paracetamol as needed for comfort. Because your symptoms are persisting, I highly recommend consulting a doctor. They can properly evaluate you and provide the right guidance to help you recover.
