A. for 250mg paracetamol give 2.5ml or from 120mg paracetamol give 5ml 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. Dolo 650 you can use but I would just like to tell you that both the medicines are just the same you can use any as per your choice but since you’re looking for an option then you can use Dolo 650 it’s a good paracetamol which you can repeat again after six hours if needed
