Brief Answer:
Add tylenol 650mg tablets!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If UA showed elevated white count, she probably has a urinary tract infection. However, I will like to obtain your entire report before rushing to conclusions. For that reason, I will suggest you upload the report for review and more insights.
Also, if fever persist, offer her Tylenol 650mg orally at most 3 times daily.
I hope this guides. I await your updates and requested report.
