Preventive PCM for Pentav

Hi My baby boy was born (birth wt: 2.6 kg) on 18 oct 2020 (10 week 6 days old and ~3.2-4 Kg now) We got him vaccinated today with Pentav (2nd dose) OPV (3rd dose) Rotavirus (2nd dose) Last time, we placed icepack for 2 min every 2 hours for 6 times after first dose of pentav vaccine but he still got fever in night. And then we gave him some paracitmol drops and he became fine. Can we give him 5 paracitmol drops as PREVENTIVE measure to prevent any fever after doing icepack for 15 min after the vaccination today  even if he does NOT get any fever ? Or do you suggest to give pcm drops only if fever comes ?
