My son has had a fever since yesterday afternoon and I gave him paracetamol, which seemed to help for a bit. This morning, we saw a doctor nearby who advised on cidaflox 100 and macfast syrup. But now, his fever is up to 102. What should I do?

Cidaflox-100: This is an antibiotic (Ciprofloxacin) that is often used for bacterial infections. Ensure that you give the full course as prescribed, even if the fever improves. Don't stop the medication early unless instructed by the doctor. Macfast Syrup: This is typically used to treat gastrointestinal symptoms or inflammation if the fever continues to rise despite medication, or if new symptoms develop (e.g., rash, difficulty breathing, persistent vomiting, severe headache, or persistent pain), consult a doctor immediately. If your son experiences any side effects or signs of an allergic reaction to the medication (such as rashes, swelling, or difficulty breathing), stop the medication and seek medical attention right away.Continue paracetamol as per the prescribed dosage for fever control. Ensure hydration and rest. Monitor symptoms regularly, especially if the fever persists or worsens. Consult the doctor if the fever does not respond to treatment, or if new symptoms develop.
