My kid 4.5 yrs old 15.5kg is running fever from one day(midnight of 15th) and does not have any other symptoms. Is shaking a little when the fever is touching 102. We paid a visit to local doctor yesterday morning and he prescribed P250 5ml every 5 hrs and augpen-ds as the doctor mentioned it was due to throat infection and meftal p if fever crosses 102. My kid doesn t have throat pain or cough or cold. Yesterday evening we gave him one dose of meftal p in between as the fever has crossed 102 and he was fine for couple of hours and again last night took him to hosp at 9pm as the fever is increasing so doctor gave him justin suppository and continuing normal dosage of P250 every 4hrs. Today again the fever is touching 101 from morning 4am. We are already sponging him continuously. Please suggest
Hi, Nothing to worry as antibiotics and antipyretic medicines are given regularly. If viral fever is there, within 2-3 days it will be alright. If fever is due to some bacterial infection like upper respiratory tract, antibiotic will take care of it. Important is to keep your child well HY Chat Doctor. Give plenty of water and liquids. Give him light dietfor3-4 days. Ok and take care.
