Temperature of 99 is normal. The normal body temperature range for a healthy adult is generally between 97°F (36.1°C) and 99°F (37.2°C).
Your symptoms are important than temperature.
If you still feel he is feverish, get blood tests done and review.

Fever running into the 5th-6th day needs a cause, not just more Dolo. Antibiotics started blindly often don't cover what is actually there - dengue, typhoid, malaria or a urine/chest infection all look like this in the first week.
Next Steps
Get CBC, dengue NS1/IgM, malaria, widal/typhidot, CRP and urine routine done today, and show the reports to a physician. Continue Dolo 650 only when temp crosses 100F, plenty of fluids. If breathlessness, bleeding, severe drop in urine or drowsiness - go to hospital immediately. You can consult me on Practo or at Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj.
