How Can Bronchitis Along With High Fever Be Treated?

Hi..my mother is 65 years, weighs 55 kgs and is under treatment for diabetes and hypertension. She is also suffering from bronchitis. She had a severe cough and was advised 5 day antibiotics from March 14-March 19. After that on March 23 she developed very high fever. The course of antibiotics was repeated and the fever reduced in 4 days. She was then prescribed Medrox (3 times a day), Larfost and a cough syrup. She was ok for 3 days but has started getting fever once a day since March 31. The doctor has started her on a 5 day course of antibiotics. Any advise / inputs please.
