What Is The Treatment For High Fever?

I have high fever (101-103) sine Monday. Since yesterday, fever is in the range 99-100 in daytime but by night it goes up to 101-102. I have slight cough also since yesterday. I had taken Resticlin 500 every 8 hours till yesterday afternoon and Cefxi-O 200 since yesterday night (every 12 hours) on another doctor's advise but this also does not seem to help. Please advise what could be my problem.

Dear- thanks for using our service, first of all, you need to wait at least 48 hrs for the antibiotics to start working. If you still with fever after this period of time,then you might need to reevaluate the use of the antibiotics, do a complete blood work and Chest X ray . Other possibility is that you are having a non bacterial infection.
