Fever , need urgent consultation
My son's age is 2 years. He is getting sudden fever. It started today around 10 am. Giving meftol p 3.5 ml as suggested by doctor in every 6 hours. Fever goes down after giving meftol. In case fever comes within an hour or 2 after meftol dose then can i also give crocin syrup 5 ml dose because for medtol p i would need to wait for another 6 hours from last dose given.
I do not know what is baby's weight right now but it was 10.58 kg when last checked in January 2020. Now mu baby is 2 years ild.

Fever started at 10 am and why you waiting whole day doing self medication? High sudden fever in a 2 yr old must be examined , does he have rashes , neck rigidity , unconsciousness , ear ache , etc etc so many things . In sudden high fever every hole of baby needs examination like mouth , auroscopy for ear etc . UTI in a male is very uncommon so get the child examined rather than experimenting with self medication
