Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

The history and symptoms are suggestive of viral infection. Your doctor has prescribed antipyretics to reduce the fever and the medication prescribe from him is not an antibiotics.

Most of the viral fever are self limiting and it will subside by itself. It is nothing but an seasonal flu.

I would suggest you to follow
1.Take adequate rest
2.Eat diet rich in proteins
3.Continue the tablet prescribed by your doctor.
4.Vitamin B complex to boost up the immunity.
Thank you.
