Male age 62 - Fever
My father aged 61 had mild fever around 100 around 3:00 PM. We have given Dolo 650mg at that time. Now the temperature is around 102. Can I give another Dolo now (at 07:00 PM)?

You can give him another Dolo.
But better thing would be to take him to some General Physician in your area who can examine him and give proper treatment.
