Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Fever is when the temperature of the body goes above 99 degree fahrenheit and the safest medicine in such situation is paracetamol which can be repeated after 6 hours again if required in a proper dose . Alternative medicine cangf also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations.v
cold sponging of the whole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl3 years agoA. Yes you can continue with the medicine after every six hours the fever is literally on the higher side so I would advise you to start doing Thande Paani Ki Patti as well on the forehead and on the entire body as well to reduce down the temperatureWrite Your Answer Here
