Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Please do not use them simultaneously. Since the baby is only 15 months, dosage of medications must be tightly regulated. Giving both medicines simultaneously is not advisable.
Fever in children is very common and home remedies like sponging will help the baby.
If the baby has respiratory infection, you can try saline nebulization.
Take care,
Regards
