Hi , the situation is tense, really appreciate that you going outside only in dire need. Now coming to your child, is she showing any other symptoms apart from fever, any cold/cough/bodyache/feeding difficulties/sleep appetite/bowel-bladder habits? As you have already said that she had fever, giving paracetamol is appropriate. What is her weight, because the dosage is based on it? Azithromycin is not suggested unless there is cold & cough associated, we give that for respiratory tract bacterial infection. Lab investigation is needed to rule out dengue or other differentials. Please note, dengue commonly presents with associated bodyache-vomiting; the primary management for most viral illness is body fluid maintenance, so try for that.
General advice: warm cloth compress over forehead, improve diet.
If the conditions doesn't improve do take her to nearby care.
For better discussion place a direct call/chat. Take care.
