hi.. you have't mentioned the temperature of your baby as for temperatures more them 103 degree farenheit meftal is recommended. Ideally the dose will be decided by the doctor and then split into number of doses in a day. So would advise you to consult your paediatrician regarding the dosage instructions
Next Steps
Consult a paediatrician
Health Tips
U can also try sponging with cold water to bring down the temperature if fever crosses 100 degree farenheit
