I took my son to the ER earlier today because he had a fever of 104. He was prescribed Tylenol Morton and amyoxicillan for a respiratory infection. His temp will go down a little after we give him his mess but goes back up shortly after to the 104 range. He is 3 years old. Any advice would be great we have called the ER and asked but they just gave us the basic advice we already know
Dear Parent, I understand your concern regarding your sons' fever. The antibiotics prescribed would take 48 hrs to show effect, until then your children fever would continue to persist. Apart from giving him round the clock Tylenol and Motrin you can sponge him with lukewarm water. Please make sure that you sponge the armpits, groin, palms and soles. Please contact your pediatrician if your child is excessively Chat Doctor.
