Aconite or Belladonna? Help me decide.

19 month old baby has sudden fever. Slight runny nose, flushed red face, hot skin and temperature of 100-101.
He is very sleepy, looks drowsy, clingy and very upset.
Should I give Belladonna or Aconite ? Or is there anything else I can try?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please try Bell as an emergency medicine but give some more details for proper prescription.

Thank you for writing back. He has a gagging cough today morning, which is not too frequent but comes on suddenly. When he coughs I can hear the mucus in the throat. He is restless as if he is in some discomfort. Fever is still there. Should I try Belladonna in the wet dose?
What other details should I provide?

Sorry for writing back late. My baby has been sick and I had not accessed the computer. Yes, I did give him Bell but it did not bring the fever down. I will write down what he is going through right now.

He has high fever which shoots up to 102 mostly at night, every night for the last 3 days. His face is flushed and cheeks hot. His eyes look tired and he is inactive mostly. He is otherwise a very active baby. His cough got worse and it was a gagging loose cough. I gave him hepar sulp 30c - 2 doses but I think its still getting worse. He has been indoors and wants to be held. He has not eaten anything solid but has been on Soy milk only.

Please suggest how to bring the fever down. I havenot taken him to the doctor yet because I am worried about anti-biotics which I am sure they will prescribe immediately.

Since you have given your choice of medicine in aco and bell.therefore, it was not advisable for me to give you treatment. Alway please try to give the full symptoms on this forum for getting necessary advice. Now what is the present condition of your kid.
