My 9 yrs old daughter had high fever Three days back. Doctor said it is viral fever and also got her blood test done for typhoid and dengue n then confirmed it is viral . For three days my daughter took cepodem antibiotic tablet prescribed by him . Her fever has come down but has developed a very bad cold and dry cough . Because of cough she is unable to sleep at night time, I told this to doctor he said to continue with the same antibiotic for next three days . Is he correct??
Hello. Thanks for asking Chat Doctor. Yes you can continue with the same antibiotic. It works well for upper respiratory tract infection. You can use a cough syrup which contains phenylephrine, chlorphenarimine maleate5mg/2\u00a0mg, 5ml three times a day along with steam inhalation 2 times a day. I hope this helps. If you have any other queries/question please feel free to ask. Thanks and wish you a healthy life.
