The dose of fever medicine should be determined by the children weight: paracetamol 15 mg/kg given 6 hourly and ibuprofen 10 mg/kg per dose given 8 hourly. Don't use more than recommended dose even if fever doesn't subside. Use sponging. Continue antibiotics. Ask your doctor for blood investigations, urinalysis etc. if no relief in 3-5 days.
