Hi. I would not advice any medication for this child without a formal examination. Please visit your paediatrician whenever fever lasts for more than 2 days . its really appreciable that you have maintained a temperature chart.

Hello, if you have self medicating the child not consulting doctor it is bad option. For kids mild cough and cold by viral infection is complicated by secondary bacterial infection. In that case along with paracetamol, proper antibiotics to be added (syrup. Moxikind - cv 200mg/5ml, 4ml two (or three) times a day, syrup febrex -plus 6ml three times a day will help) for prescription visit a doctor.
