A. No antibiotics should not be repeated so frequently as it lowers the immunity but you can give calpol drops for fever and for cold steam inhalation put saline nasal drops and apply little eucalyptus oil on chest and back

A. Don’t give any antibiotic to the child without consulting the doctor that is not healthy for your child currently I am only going to advise you to consult your concerned doctor for a proper course of medication after getting a child examine and after telling you what all medicines have you given and what was the dosage of the medicines and the dosage that you have given word
