Q: My husband is 65 and took COVID vaccination 7 days back now he developed severe cough and high temperature can he take antibiotics along with Cronin ?

Generally fever following COVID 19 vaccination lasts for a day or two. If fever is noticed 7 days following vaccination, it is unlikely due to vaccination and requires evaluation for cause of fever. Reporting to a nearby healthcare professional is advised.
