It is unlikely that he'll need another course of medendazole. The fever would not be related to the albendazole that he took and more likely due to an infection, possibly a stomach infection.
Next Steps
Wait and watch if the fever recurs. And continue paracetamol every 6 hours if there's fever. Sips of WHO ORS will help.
Health Tips
There's no role of multivitamins in this scenario.
