Fever from today early mo
My daughter 4 years 7 months old
From today morning she has fever. Her temperature was 100.4. So I gave combiflam 4ml, as paracetamol doesn't reduce her fever. She is undergoing treatment for epilepsy and is taking medicine on daily basis. Doctor said to give 1 frisium in the morning and I gave her. At 10.30am her temperature was 99. So I gave combiflam. But it didn't reduce her fever. We already tried sponging but it caused shivering for her and fits came. Today I covered her with blanket as she was shivering but then too she got fits. It nearly took 2 hours for her temperature to reduce. Pls help us what to do to reduce her temperature immediately to avoid fits. Can we give her warm water bath
