Hello,
You see there is no diagnosis of the cause of fever in you so the use of Antibioics is not justified.
Since you have started ZOCEF on 6th you may continue the medicines for another 3 days although it's role is doubtful.
I would advise you to consult an internal medicine specialist for detailed investigations like X ray chest,ultrasound abdomen,test for leptospirosis etc.
A proper treatment can be instituted only after diagnosis of the cause.
Thanks
