Double dose of amoxicillin in 30 days!

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

My daughter has been sick since Christmas. Fever, fatigue, no appetite, headache. I took her to the doctor 1/1/18 she said she had an ear infection & prescribed amoxicillin. She took the full 10days worth but never got better. Yesterday she stopped eating again. Today, her fever spiked to 103, she slept all day, complained of headache/neck ache/ chest pain. Urgent care says she has double ear infection, sinus infection & mono. They prescribed more amoxicillin! She’s getting worse, not better!
