What Causes Fever While On Augmentin?

Hi. I went to the Doctors last week and was told that I have an upper respiratory infection. I am coughing and have been running a temp over 100 for the last 10 days. I am taking 875mg of Augmentin and since taking that, my stomach feels very uneasy. Should I still be running a temp after being on antibiotics for 8 days? Also, my neck is now very stiff. I don t think that is an upper respiratory infection

Hello

Probably you should do a chest X Ray for evaluating the lungs and the treatment should be three times per day orally.
