A. Fever is a reaction of the body to different pyrogens released during any Infection. Usually temp more than 99 F is taken as fever . Mostly in children fever is because of viral infections like flu or RSV where the fever is there for 4-5 days but may persist even upto 2 weeks . Initially antipyretic like paracetamol is given in a dose of 15 mg / kg/ dose. Can be repeated after 4-6 hrs if needeud . Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home fremedy to decrease fever. Adequate fluid intake is also beneficial. Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehydration .

A. If it is any medicine for fever suggested by a doctor you can go for it you can repeat the dose age again after six hours if it is needed because that is of fever medicine I supposed to be given and fever is little on the higher side so I suggest you to do Thande Pani Ki Patti as well
