Is Sweating Normal In A Child While Being On Clavam 625?

Doctor has prescribed Clavam 625 for my son aged 10 yrs, weighing 41 kgs, twice a day, for his throat infection. He is out of fever and seemingly normal but temperature is below 98 and he is sweating a lot. Is this due to the medicine? Is it ok to be so?

Hi...it is not due to the antibiotic clavam. Its probably his fever which is coming down now. Do nor worry if he is active and talking well even though he's sweating a lot. I hope a throat swab culture or a rapid antigen testing has been done before starting an antibiotic.
