Hello Nimi,
The drug Azithromycin is a antibiotic and will check over any underlying bacterial infection, and the drug paracetamol will control his fever.These two drugs are adequate for common fever.
The point which is bothering is appearance of heat boils like lesions. You have to check whether its due to allergic reaction to azithromycin, if its allergic then you should stop taking azithromycin and change over to other antibiotic.
hope my info helped you
