2022-01-24 16:22:59
Hi, my son is having fever since Morning today. Few suggested Calpol but our online pediatric suggests meftal P. His age is 8 and weight is 25KG. As per research mefal require once fever goes beyond 103 while my son temperature is around 100 to 103. We tried Calpol with 3 dose of 8ml but didn't see any result. Please suggest us. Please note that my son don't have cold, Running nose and weakness.

Meftal can be used for high fever above 102 or if fever is not better with calpol. So please use it. This fever is very high so please meet a pediatrician for physical check up and tests may be needed
