The dosage of syrup plays an important role so firstly check the dosage here it’s like Syp Calpol(250/5) 3.5 four times a day only if temp > 100 administer. In between need to do sponging also
Next Steps
Despite administering syrup if fever persists we need to evaluate the cause
Health Tips
Don’t worry if fever
