What Is The Dosage Of Alvedon For Fever And Vomiting?

Hello. I m from sweden and can t find a good equivalent chat service in swedish.. so I m sorry if my english doesn t really suffice... well, my daughter has a high fever and is vomiting. She is 2 years old. We are giving her liquid antifebrile alvedon . I wonder how long it takes before her body takes it all up. Will it make any effect if she vomits 30 minutes after we give it to her? Should we give it to her again if she vomits within 30 minutes? Thanks

Hi... I understand your concern.

Any drug if vomited within 15 minutes only needs to be re-administered.

By what you say I feel that your kid might be having a viral illness.

I will explain you how a viral illness behaves so that you can feel more confident.

Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active.
