A. when fever and pain comes after vaccination you can give paracetamol to the child for fever as well as pain. paracetamol can be given maximum 4 times per day. you can also apply ice over the injection site. s if there is local swelling you can apply ice as well as thrombophob gel. vaccine fever usually subsides in max 2 to 3 days but if it continues beyond 3 days meet your dr to rule out any other causes of fever s

A. In the 48 hours after vaccination, if your baby still has a fever but is otherwise well, you can continue to give your baby the same 2.5 ml dose (60mg) of infant paracetamol (120mg/5ml) suspension. You should always leave at least 4 hours between doses and never give more than 4 doses in any 24 hour period

Q. #asktheexperts Hello Doctor, Two days ago, we vaccinated our 3-month-old baby at a government hospital. After the vaccination, they gave us a paracetamol tablet for him. I wanted to ask if it's safe to give that tablet, or would it be better to use a paracetamol pediatric oral solution instead? Which option would you recommend as safer and more suitable for a 3-month-old baby? Thank you for your guidance. Best regards, Anil Khulape
