Have Fever, Loose Motions. Had Crocin. What Can Help Stomach Pain?
My son is 8 years and 23 kgs. He is having fever from yesterday. Local physician haven t given any medicine but Crocine. But after Crocine DS since fever was coming after every 4 hours, today we have given Meftal-P at 10 am. Fever came down that time. Again fever is up now and at 4:30 pm we have given Crocine DS at 102 fever. It is not fully down. Can we give Meftal-p again? What would be your suggestion?

Hello
You have to give only paracetamol and liquids to your son.
Paracetamol is given in the dose of 15 mg per kg of weight in one dose.
You can give this dose 4 times a day.
Since your child is 23 kg,you have to give appox 350 mg four times a day.
A syrup containing 250 mg per 5 ml can be given in a dose of 7 to 7.5 ml four times a day.
Thanks
