If you are having infection+ fever, you can take paracetamol & augmentin as prescribed by your physician. If you take supplements like Iron tablets along with above drugs, you may have nause/ vommiting with other gastric issues.( Oral Iron can easily cause nausea, esp in empty stomach & gastritis in some people).
Next Steps
you may finish the course of antibiotics, then resume with your Fe  & other supplements.
