A. You need to repeat it after six hours not before that and it is nature of fever to repeat every 3 to 4 hours and also I would say that too cold sponging the temperature is little high so that is going to help in reduction of the fever

Q. My 2 year old 12 kg started getting high fever from day before yesterday evening. We took her to doctor and he adviced ibuwise every 6 hours and if fever comes in between then meftal p. During last cycle of medication, we gave her 6ml ibuwise 1.30pm, and then fever started coming so around 6.30pm we gave her meftalp, but even after 2 hours of that fever wasn’t reduced, it was after we gave ibuwise again after few hours, temperature started dropping. Why is not meftal working here? And why is fever returning in every 5 hours?
