My 11 month old child was having fever for 4-5 days so I gave her hhamclav dry syrup but on the bottle it is written that the syrup should be given for 3 days but the syrup is still not finished. So can I give her remaining syrup or should I throw it away?

Stop.
Most fevers in children are viral in origin and take 3-7 days to subside completely.
If not accompanied by any other symptoms like vomiting or loose motions or coughing and breathlessness or dullness and refusal to feed,just give paracetamol for fever and repeat every 4 hours if required.
If not improving OR accompanied by above,consult your paediatrician.
