Dear sir If you are giving ibuprofen for fever you can start with 5 mg per kg body weight So you can give him 2.5 ml initially Paracetamol is also a good medication for fever Please evaluate him for the fever as he’s less than 2 years old
Next Steps
Evaluate the fever in a hospital for other causes and do blood investigation as needed
