A. the first medicine will always be paracetamol and it is given according to weight and power of paracetamol medicine you are having. give liquids and easily digestible food and paracetamol should be given only after food. keep the child in cool environment and avoid using woolen clothes when the child is having fever armpit temperature of hundred or more is considered as fever to body sponge to decrease the surfacef temperature and should be carried out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water. higher medicines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will fbe told by the doctor.

A. hello usually the paracetamol is given once in every 6 hours and if the child is having too much fever it can be given after 4 hours and not before that so it would be better to check with your doctor and she will be able to guide you accordingly which would be better and safe
