Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Fever is a response of the body towards any kind of infection or any inflammatory process in body and only when the temperature is above 99F it is called fever, so you can give paracetamol in a dose of 15 mg/kg/dose as the first line treatment this dose can be again repeated after every 5 to 6 hours if again required and you can also do cold sponging of the body to reduce fever in between the doses ,but if it continues even thereafter you should consult your doctor for proper treatment. if the temperature is not controlled by paracetamol alone, meftal p can be given in between as a single dose but only under medical guidance.these medicines will also work to relieve any pain or body ache to a good extent. but in case of infection in which the fever is associated with other problems also it is recommended to get the clinical assessment done and get a proper treatm+treent done by a doctor.

U You just give simple Calpol to the child as of now the medicine you are giving is mostly given when the fever is extremely high like 102 or 103° so the dosage as of now is going to be 1ML you can repeat it after six hours start doing cold sponging it’s not high fever it will come down immediately if it with cold sponging
