Hi,
Yes, you can give simultaneously but remember fever is a symptom alone. It is not a disease. Crocin and meftal will reduce the fever only it will not cure the disease. So don't worry about the numbers. Keep the kid hydrated and comfortable. Don't exceed the recommended dose.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rajmohan, Pediatrician
