Fever and cold

2017-05-28 07:00:22
Hello doctor, my daughter is 1 year and 4 months old she is suffering from fever (102) for last two days . We have administered p125 (paracetamol) 5 ml every six hours but fever didn't subside. Last night we gave p250 (paracetamol) oral suspension 3ml as per doc suggestion and the fever reduced to 100 and then 99.2 in the morning. Is it safe to continue p250 for another two days? Or is it a high dose for 1 year and four months kid?

As long as your giving 3ml of p250, once in 6 hours it's safe.
