Hello Doctor. My Kid is suffering from fever since evening, i have given CrocinDS every six hours. Even after it is not coming down. Second dose of Crocin given at 11PM. even after 2 hours fever persist temperate is recorded as 100 F. So please suggest. when can i give other dose or shall i give Mefthol P?
Hi welcome to Chat Doctor you can give paracetamol (Cronin DS), every 6 hourly, do tepid sponging if fever persists, as and when required. Most fever are viral in nature and persists for 4-6 days. If fever is persisting, is high, baby dull, poor oral acceptance, freq vomiting, passing less urine or otherwise does not seem well, you need to consult your pediatrician to rule out any serious issue. You can give Metal P along with paracetamol. Hope I answered your query thanks.
