If he is regularly vaccinated you should not be worried about distemper and the signs you noticed are probably due to another cause (possibly upper respiratory tract infection of other source). If the antibiotics are not helping a check up would be needed anyway. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
