Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

As your daughter is having fever for few days, the fever is the protective mechanism whenever there is infection in any part of the body, the body immune system will fight against the organisms producing these symptoms by releasing mediators of fever which will increases the body temp.

Your doctor has prescribed the antibiotics, the syrup Taxim is sn antibiotic which helps to control the infection and reduce the fever.


In addition to antibiotic you need to give antipyretic like syrup Dolo to your daughter 3 ml every 8th hour to your daighter.

With these measures the fever will come down.
Thank you.
