Hello, Usually a fever will last 2-4 days.  The acetaminophen (Paracetamol) will only last about 4-6 hours.  So you will have to give it again and again - but no more often than every 4-6 hours and no more than 5 doses in a 24-hour time period.  At 11 mos, you could also try Ibuprofen, which often lasts longer, more like 6-8 hours.  You should dose it based on weight to get the best effect.  Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
