Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Since your son has already been seen by the Doctor and started on Amoxicillin, he is on the correct antibiotics.
But as he has developed coughing and sneezing and has fever, he needs additional treatment of antihistamine and anti-inflammatory medicines with anti-pyretic properties. Please take him back or get an additional prescription.
In addition give him decongestant nasal drops and steam inhalations.
Bed rest helps.
