Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Fever is a reaction of the body to different pyrogens released during any Infection. Usually temp more than 99 F is taken as fever .
Mostly in children fever is because of viral infections like flu or RSV where the fever is there for 4-5 days but may persist even upto 2 weeks .
Initially antipyretic like paracetamol is given in a dose of 15 mg / kg/ dose. Can be repeated after 4-6 hrs if needed .
Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home remedy to dgecrease fever.
Adequate fluid intake is also hbeneficial.
Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehydration .

Ibujesic Plus can be given to the child but right now the fever is extremely high I suggest you that you visit the nearest hospital immediately see if the fever each is the brain of the child and it is going to be very very difficult situation instead of self medicate increase visit the hospital
