A. In the 48 hours after vaccination, if your baby still has a fever but is otherwise well, you can continue to give your baby the same 2.5 ml dose (60mg) of infant paracetamol (120mg/5ml) suspension. You should always leave at least 4 hours between doses and never give more than 4 doses in any 24 hour period.
