Hi, My son is 8 months old and he is suffering with high temperature. My paediatrician suggested the drops sinarest, azithral and ascoril on second day of fever and the drop lariago on 4th day(I.e. yesterday). Till now the temperature not reduced and his body seems to be very hot. Please let me know whether I can continue with the same medication as per Dr prescription or I can take to other hospital.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your son have persistent high fever despite administering Sinarest which could be due to
viral infection, infectious mononucleosis, sinusitis and respiratory tract infection. It is due to poor immunity of body and increased susceptibility of getting infected. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit general physician once and get it examined. You should go for blood and urine tests for confirmation of diagnosis. Drink plenty of water. Take antibiotic along with cough expectorant and NSAIDs such as Ibuprofen for 3-5 days. Chew vitamin C pellet daily. Take multivitamin tablet as well to booster immunity. Avoid excessive oily food and cold beverages.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
