How long do fevers last?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying bacterial or viral infection and so, duration of fever depends on that particular causative organism. Usually, most fevers usually go away in 1 to 3 days in adults.

-Yes, you can give **Maxtra syrup** to your 5-year-old for cold symptoms, but the dosage depends on weight, usually 2.5-5ml twice daily. It might cause mild drowsiness or an upset stomach. **Sinarest syrup** is also effective, but consult your pediatricia

I'm really worried about my 5-year-old son. He's been dealing with a chronic cough for the last 3 weeks and usually, it gets better after a couple of weeks with nebulization. Weve been using Duolin for nebulization since he has mild asthma and also using Budecort and Salbair puffs. But this time, there's no major improvement, and his X-ray came back normal. I'm wondering why this could be happening and what else we might be able to do?
Continue duolin inhaler sos for asthma..Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.
