My 19 month old has has a fever since Thursday. It got up to 103.2 and we took her to the ER. They said it was a slight ear infection and gave some antibiotic . Now she is not hardly eating and having to take Tylenol every 4 hours and sometimes when she drinks, she throws up... Help? Should I take her back to the doctor??

Hi,
Thank you for your query,
Continue the medication as advised by the doctor.
For vomitings you can give antiemetic like ondansetron in prescribed dosage.
You can try giving frequent sips of oral fluids and rehydration nsolution.
Monitor for her activity, hydration and her urine output.
If the child is becoming dull, not accepting orally and if the fever continues, consult your Pediatrician.
Hope I have answered your query.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
Due to high fever and giving him antibiotic he may not like to take any tihng.
Now if temperature is not there you may stop giving Tylenol.
As infection is controlled he will like to take some thing gradually.
If temperature is not under control then take him to doctor.
Ok and bye.
