A. Give pcm as per prescribed dose and at proper adviced time interval . For any fever paracetamol is fine..after giving paracetamol wait for 30mins to 1 hour...if fever does not subside you can give tepid sponging n breast feed more often, n talk to ur doctor

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and it is better to give baby medicine in a gap of 5-6 hours and also you can do water Patti on baby head and skin of fever comes before . Also fever stay for 5-6 days at least. Take care
