Suggest Treatment For Fever And Throat Infection

I have 3 year old twins, they both had ear and throat infections and started Biaxin on Monday (5 days ago). One daughter is fine now, the other one is still battling fever of 102 which breaks in the day and becomes worse at night. The dosage is for 10 days, and of course I will keep them both on for the remainder of its course. Do you think I should be taking daughter back to Dr. or hospital, or, is it sometimes common for Biaxin to "kick in" after 5 days?

Any advice would be apprechiated. Thank you.
