Brief Answer:
Antibiotics should be added

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Considering the duration and severity of fever, it's important to start antibiotics in your case.

I generally prescribe oral pills of Cap AUGMENTIN 625 mg , one pill twice a day for 3 days.

Continue Calpol as prescribed.

Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these pills to you.

Thank you.
