Baby has Fever 100.4 and stuffy nose
Hi
My 1.4 year old baby suddenly developed fever and temperature went upto 102. We gave nobel plus syrup and temperature came down to normal(98.4)
Today we consulted doctor and we have been advised to give Zifi 50 dry syrup antibiotic and nobel plus. However even after 2-3 doses, temperature is fluctuating. After 5hrs of nobel plus dose, temperature rising to 100.5 and it decreases once we give nobel plus dose.
Pls let us know how many doses it require to reduce the fever and why baby got cold after one day of fever and that to while medication.

From your history it looks like to a viral upper respiratory infection, antibiotics has very limited role. Usually fever takes 3-5 days to settle down. I would suggest to continue with fever medication when ever temperature is more than 100, if needed you should tepid sponging, you can give fever medicines every 4 hourly
