Cold cough fever
Hi Doctors,
My daughter is 3.5 months of age.
Three days ago she had some mild sneezing and cough and 100+ fever so we consulted paediatric and he prescribed paracetamol and nasoclear drop. Only one day after giving paracetamol the fever were subsided last two days but the nose congestion and mild cough and sneezing was there so we consulted paediatrician again and he prescribed Maxtra ( 0.3 ml thrice) & Moxclav BD 228.5( 3 ml twice) and Bevon drop we started these medications from yesterday.
The other symptoms got slightly subsided but suddenly from today everything we see my baby has 99.5 Temperature. She sleeps a bit more and sometimes she is becoming cranky without any reason and she is drinking breast milk a bit less.
Why the fever(99.5 F) got reverted? Is there something need to worry? Is it medicine side effect?

Stop maxtra. It causes drowsiness.
If the temperature increases over 100, consult.
