Your baby is having fever, cold and cough for now 18 days.Viral fever could have come to normal in 7 days as it is self limiting fever. It is infective If i have to treat such a patient i will advice some tests hb ,tlc, dlc ,esr, widal MP, urine routine and blood culture and xray chest. If i have to treat such a patient i will advice syrup augmentum one tea spoon full three times a day ,syrup wikoryl one teaspoon full three times a day ,sporlac sachets three times a day and zeet expectorant three times a day ,steem iinhation
