Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. He has infection and fever. His high creatinine and urea level can be due to infection affecting kidney. Antibiotics generally doesn't cause severe kidney damage. You should go for urine routine and microscopic examination as well as ultrasound abdomen to search any abnormality.
