Hi

Usually antibiotics take 2 days to show complete effect. If it has been 2 days or more then it means that the antibiotics are not working and you better take him to doctor.

But if it's less than 2 days since Antibiotic has been started then wait for 1 more day.

Hope this answers your query.

Any clarification feel free to ask .

Regards.
