Hi Seema
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
Does your child have vomiting or diarrhoea, if no then nor metrogyl is not warranted.
The crocin syp dose is mentioned according to the weight on the bottle itself, but sometimes other stronger antipyretics like mefenamic or ibuprofen may be necessary or appropriate antibiotics should be started.Also its best to consult a pediatrician even for minor illnesses in children for exact diagnosis and treatment.
Thank you
