A. whenever fever is not improving with paracetamol you will have to see if the dosage of the medicine is given according to the weight of the child or not and if the power of the paracetamol is proper. also if the medicine is older than one month after opening then better to buy a new bottlex. you have to give paracetamol and also do body sponge and keep the child in cotton clothes. after 2 hoursx of paracetamol if the fever is is not improving then you can go for higher medicines like ibugesic or meftal p. paracetamol can be given maximum four times per day.

A. Fever has a nature of repeating after every six hours almost it is totally normal so what do you do is as of now continue with the medicine if the fever does not subside maximum within 72 hours then in that case you can check with your doctor on that
