Hi dear
welcome to the HCM,
High grade fever in this rainy season . chances are of viral origin.
Syrup Paracetamol @ 15 mg per kg 4 to 6 hourly to be given.
Plenty of water .
Tap water sponging SOS.
Take care of the nutrition,
If fever do not subside in 3 to 4 days then one should be investigated in terms of CBC, ESR, TYPHI DOT TEST, MALATRIA ANTIGEN. DENGUE SEROLOGY etc. with the consultation of your pediatrician.
Clavam is an antibitic to be advised by the pediatrician only with the conclusion of any bacterial infection after the proper investigation.
A homeopathic using antibiotic is not justified.
Thanks
