Why would my upper respiratory infection be getting worse even though i've been taking the doctor prescribed medicine since friday?

Mgt: Most viral illnesses including the flu will resolve in two weeks. If you have a prolonged cough or fever, a follow up visit can be scheduled online to review. In the meantime, hydration and rest are recommended.
