Brief Answer:
You can give the medicines without worrying.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. Your doctor is treating on lines of bacterial infection. I assume that he has the basis for the same. Although most often such infections are due to viral cause and do not require to be treated with antibiotics, I would not like to differ from your doctor since I cannot examine her clinically. Please follow his advice. The other medicines are fine and can be given without worries.
