Question: My daughter 2.5 yrs old having fever since last 2 days. We have givin dolopar-mds and augmenin dds syrup as per doctor prescription. Today she is having swelling on her eyes and she is complaining about pain in her legs. Just want to check if it is normal behavior for viral fever.
Brief Answer:
It could be virus or side effect of medicine
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This could be side effect of the medicine also. Augmentin is an antibiotic that has no effect in a viral. It can also have side effects like allergy which can cause swollen eyes.
I will suggest that you withdraw both the medicines and see if she gets better.
If she does not get better by tomorrow, kindly see a doctor.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks
