12 month old with double ear infection, fever of 103.6: what now?
My 12 month old son has a double ear infection, the doctor prescribed Amoxicillin and Clavulanate for Oral Suspension, 4mL by mouth 2xdaily, and also Antipyrine and Benzocaine Otic Solution USP, 2 drops every 2 hours. He has been on these meds for 16 hours, but his fever keeps fluctuating between 100 to 104 degrees. He is sleeping fitfully right now, but his fever is 103.6. I feel concerned - what should I do? Do I need to call the doctor again?
