Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

The symptoms suggests a respiratory infection, most of which are viral. If she is not dull and is accepting feeds well, just continue crocin and polaramine for 3 days. If fever is not coming down after 72 hours, cough becomes wet type or she develops fast breathing/breathing difficulty, kindly take her to doctor to decide regarding antibiotic therapy. I usually gives amoxycillin or amoxyclav for 5 days.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
