A. please do not use beyond open month of opening. when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometer and if it is 99 f (37 c) or more then you consider it as fever or when you take the temperature in the oral cavity of the child and if it is 100 degree fahrenheit then you consider it as fever and then paracetamol is given. along with paracetamol continue body sponge and keep the child in light clothes. paracetamol can be repeated maximum four times per day

A. Medicines are also meant to use a shelf life not necessarily with the expiration dates I’m just going to advise you to check the shelf life it’s mentioned on the bottle itself if it is suitable then you use it otherwise it’s better to buy a new bottle
