General & Family Physician,  's  Response
greeting ,
her problem is due to in appropriate course of treatment , you may stop treatment before completing the course at least 7-10 days on antibiotics.
also , the causative organism of infection may be resistant to augmentin , so you have to give her another group of antibiotic (eg. erythromycin)
but i wish you could visit her doctor to reevaluate her case and he may ask for more lab. investigation to confirm diagnosis.
