Your child's high fever with runny nose and cough while on cefdoxime, azithromycin, and Calpol syrup needs careful monitoring.

🩺 Symptoms

• A fever of 103°F is considered high and can be concerning in children.
• Runny nose and cough suggest a respiratory infection, which may be viral or bacterial.

⚠️ What to Watch For

• If the fever persists beyond 3 days despite medication, or worsens.
• Signs of difficulty breathing, persistent vomiting, lethargy, or dehydration.
• If your child becomes unusually drowsy or irritable.

🏥 Immediate Actions

• Continue giving Calpol syrup (paracetamol) as directed to reduce fever.
• Ensure your child stays well hydrated with fluids like water, oral rehydration solutions, or diluted fruit juices.
• Keep your child resting in a comfortable environment.

🩺 When to See a Doctor

• If fever remains high or symptoms worsen, consult a pediatrician promptly.
• Since your child is already on antibiotics (cefdoxime and azithromycin), a doctor should reassess to ensure the treatment is appropriate and to rule out complications.

It is important to follow up with a pediatrician to evaluate your child's condition and adjust treatment if needed. If urgent symptoms develop, seek emergency care immediately.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.Please enter your age.
