Brief Answer:
You can give it safely
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Can understand your concerns.
Fepanil 250 contains paracetamol. Paracetamol is used to relieve fever.
Paracetamol syrup can be given at 4 hourly interval, there is no harm if given in prescribed doses.
I think that you should give fepanil 250 whenever there is fever. No need to worry if have already given it for 3 days, it will be safe to use.
I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
Take care.
