Wait for few days more. In typhoid, the fever can last for 1 to 2 weeks. Most important,  is the child weak and very inactive? Is he passing less urine ? We have to take an overall view. Fever is not dangerous by itself

How old is the kid? Persistent fever is a concern. He requires admission and thorough investigation and necessary treatment.

I totally understand your concern. Before suggesting treatment, I would like to ask a few questions to ensure the correct management can be provided. Contact me on Practo or WhatsApp chat. Contact number: 97012307 two nine Dr. G. Avinash MBBS, MD (Pediatrics) Fellowship in Neonatology

How was fever before and how it responded by now ?need to know this.and have you done any blood test? antibiotics can be continued for 5,7,10 days depending on above questions answer and also details history of illness.Either take proper consultation here or with your regular Pediatrician for proper guidance

Greetings Since the fever persists after the full antibiotic course, it is essential to consult your pediatrician immediately rather than waiting or changing medications on your own. Persistent fever could indicate a resistant infection, a viral illness not covered by antibiotics, or another underlying condition. A doctor may need to perform a physical exam or order blood tests and a urine culture to identify the cause. Ensure the child stays hydrated and monitor for "red flags" like extreme lethargy, difficulty breathing, or a new rash

Consult with Pediatrician physically for further evaluation and treatment

Don't wait still Do blood tests CBP CRP WIDAL TEST

Fever may take 48-72 hours to settle completely even after starting antibiotics, depending on the cause. Please do not change or stop medicines on your own if only 1-2 days have passed. Continue medicines as advised, maintain good hydration, and give fever medicine in proper dose only when fever is present. However, if fever is persisting beyond 3 days, increasing, child is dull, breathing fast, vomiting repeatedly, not eating/drinking, or any new symptoms appear, a re-evaluation by your pediatrician is important as examination or tests may be needed. Also avoid giving antibiotics without proper review, as many fevers in children are viral and may not need antibiotic change.
