Brief Answer:
needs evaluation...

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Medicines prescribed by your doctor are correct. Recurrent cold and cough at short interval are common in children of this age. But since he is getting intermittent fever he needs to be investigated for other causes such as urinary tract infection, malaria, adenoid, tonsillitis, sinusitis etc.

You can talk about those with the doctor during the next follow up visit.
