Hi,

In my opinion, all the dosage given appear to be in permissible range for your boy except for the dosage of Combiflam. I think, 7 ml. is a bit on the higher side. It should be some where up to 5 ml with frequency 4-6 hourly, depending on the height of temperature. Also, usually ear infection may take 3-7 days to subside. Therefore, you are advised to wait for a few days more for the fever to come to normal.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
