Hello
If you have bronchitis and you are a smoker i would advise levofloxacin instead of clavunate
Your temperature after clavunate will fall after 72 hrs,
Eat as much as you can especially in fever.
Body aches will decrease with steam inhalation and ibuprofen (2 tablets)
If no improvement after 72 hrs , re-consultation is necessary
aahope this helps
