Dear sir,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but unfourtanetly Augmentin can cause fever and chills in rare occasions due to allergy to its constituents . Is oils recommend that you stop using augmentin , take ibuprofen tablets every eight hours to relive the fever and take an antihistaminic as citrizine once daily before going to bed to abort the allergic reaction..

I hope you find this helpful
