Hi Doctor, I want to know how safe is the Meftal P syrup to the kids. My daughter is 2.5 years old. She is running fever. Doctor suggested Meftal P and Calpol alternately every 3 hrs and continue the cycles if the temp is not staying at 98.4 in a 24 hrs cycle. Just worried after reading the side effects, is it safe to give like this. We have given her already for 2 days. Please help us to understand
Hi, Both paracetamol and metal are very commonly used in child Chat Doctor.  But sometimes, high grade fever will not respond to paracetamol and need more potent antipyretic like metal. However, we cannot give either of these
