You are already giving antibiotic to the child along with fever medicine. After giving antibiotics it is important to wait for 3 days and continue the medicine and after 3 days if the child is not improving then only you have to take a follow with your doctor. Please consider fever only when the armpit temperature is 100 or more. Higher medicines like ibugesic can be given after medical consultation. To decrease the body temperature you can also do body sponge.
