A. Fever is when the temperature of the body goes above 99 degree fahrenheit anlld 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 whole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

A. You Cannot repeat a medicine before six hours kindly wait if the fever is high do cold sponging on the entire body specially behind the knees of your child that is going to help in bringing down the fever still if you feel the fever is not coming down then you should visit the hospital they would be any doctor available who treat your child
