Patient's question:

The granddaughter started having high fever yesterday. She has been coughing for about two days, occasionally coughing a few times. She has been taking Paracetamol and Chlorpheniramine, as well as the pediatric cough and phlegm reliever. Last night and tonight, her fever reached 39.7°C. She always after taking medicine, but then gets a high fever again.
What kind of assistance is needed: Hello, should we continue with the medication process or should we go to the hospital for an IV drip?

Doctor's answer:

Your condition can be treated with roxithromycin and ribavirin granules, which can alleviate your current symptoms. The medications I mentioned, when taken in the short term, will not cause any side effects. It is best to avoid long-term use. Please pay attention to drinking more warm water, eating less spicy food, and quitting smoking and alcohol. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
