A. 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 prorper dose . Altergnative medicine can also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations. cold sponging of the whole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

A. hello mom as per the weight of the baby and if fever is high u can give 6.9 mLs every four hours, up to a maximum of four doses in 24 hours to the child but if still fever is repeating then plz consult with your doctor for the proper medication Hello mom to get more tips on the parenting please join my group YO MAMA ✌ on firstcry let's share our experiences and help each other and become a huge family
