Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. yes can give
the first medicine will always be paracetamol and it is given according to weight and power of paracetamol medicine you are having.
give liquids and easily digestible food and paracetamol should be given only after food.
keep the child in cool environment and avoid using woolen clothes when the child is having fever
armpit temperature of hundred or more is considered as fever
to body sponge to decrease the surface temperature and should be carried out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water.
higher medicines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will be told by the doctor.

RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl1 Year agoA. You have to give one paracetamol to the child because both are the medicines that you’re mentioning are going to work in the same manner and the medicine can be repeated after six hours not in four hours so please make sure to give one medicine of your choice and continue with that
