Since the child is not feeding properly, you should take the child to a doctor and get him evaluated. You have done the right thing by giving adol (paracetamol) for fever. But giving ORS (oral rehydration solution) to prevent dehydration is important. Some antiemetic might require to be given if the vomiting continues. You may continue sporolac for a few days. After evaluation and investigations, your doctor would be able to tell if antibiotics need to be prescribed.
