my son has fever since tues. itll go down during the day and picks up at night again to around 39 degree. hes having sore throat as well since wed and is on augmentin. But since last night, he will vomit out the antibiotic. Ive also realised the antibiotic color is alittle yellowish. and its getting darker by the day. Is it still good to be taken? also, how long will it takes for him to get better
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, It seems like your child is having acute pharyngitis, and you are giving the right antibiotic. Slight color change in the medicine is acceptable. However, if its getting darker, I would suggest out to buy a fresh one. It normally takes 3-4 days for fever to subside and complete duration can vary from 7-10 days depending on the severity of the illness. Hope your child gets well soon. Take care.
