Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. whenever fever is not improving with paracetamol you will have to see if the dosage of the medicine is given according to the weight of the child or not and if the power of the paracetamol is proper.
also if the medicine is older than one month after opening then better to buy a new bottle.
you have to give paracetamold and also do body sponge and keep the child in cotton clothes.
after 2 hours of paracetamol if the fever is is not improving then you can go for higher medicines like ibugesic or meftal p.
paracetamol can be given maximum four times per day.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. 99°F is actually genuine fever so if your child is having this on and off that means maybe there is some infection I would recommend you to get a blood test done for your child to have better clarity and constant antibiotics actually weakens the liver which is why the doctors don’t advise to give a lot of antibiotics if your child has already taken a lot you put a hold on that get a testing done and we clear and sure about what the reason is
