A. Fever is when the temperature of the body goes above 99 degree fahrenheit and the safest medicine in such situation is paracetamol which can be repeated after 6 hours again if required in a proper dose . Alternative medicine can also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations. cold sponging of the whgfole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

A. Ya It is safe to check temperature every one hour you can use digital thermometer which is easy to available at medical stores also you are not supposed to repeat medicines after four hours of gap of six hours 04 hours so please do not give it in small span of time and start doing cold sponging if required
