Cepodem is an antibiotic. Frequent use of antibiotics should be avoided in children as most of the infections are viral and antibiotics doesn't have any effect. Viral fevers usually lasts for 5-7 days. Antibiotic sometimes even cause reaction in children. You can continue nasoclear & sumol. Add cetrizine syrup for cold & cough. Breathing difficulty in the form of continuous fast breathing & chest retractions are the danger signs you should watch out for.
