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

A. You are actually cannot be giving any medicine to the child without consulting the doctor and also without checking the temperature in it would not be right any time if you feel that the temperature is there you’ll have to get a check with her mom and dad and then only you can go ahead with giving the medicine as that is the right way to go ahead with itWrite Your Answer Here
