Please do not give Taxim (cefixime) without consulting her pediatrician first. Taxim is a strong antibiotic, and since her symptoms like a runny nose and fever could be viral, an antibiotic may not be necessary or effective. Since she has already taken Alex P and Xyzal, adding an antibiotic without a professional medical evaluation can cause unwanted side effects. It is best to have her doctor examine her to see if an antibiotic is truly needed.
