What Causes Fever After Taking Clarithromycin For An Ear Infection?

My daughter (10 yo) is taking clarithamyocin for a double ear infection and sinus infection. She started it last Monday. Today (Monday 4/10) she has a fever of 100.4. Is this normal? Can I give her Tylenol or something similar? Should I call her doctor in the morning?

it is obvious that due to ear infection she has fever
clarithromycin is not working properly so change it

you take cefixime twice a day for five days

so it is helpful for decrease in fever and pain and infection
