Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
Pinkish spots on his back may be due to viral rash or could be a skin rash caused by meftal-p.
Stop giving meftal at present, and for fever you can continue crocin in prescribed dose.
And consult the pediatrician for the examination of rash and to investigate depending on physical examination.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
