Most likely cause of cough, fever at this age is bronchiolitis which is viral. (Antibiotic not useful unless it's a bacterial pneumonia.) Which is why fever is better now
Next Steps
Need not repeat azibact.
Health Tips
Make sure he's well hydrated, taking feeds and passing urine as usual. Nebulization may help if cough persistent

You can leave it as fever has gone away. It may needed if fever recurs. Cough will go away without antibiotic
