Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Ibugesic Plus Syrup contains Ibuprofen and Paracetamol as active ingredients. It has both analgesic and antipyretic functions.
It is used for treatment of Fever, Cold, Ear pain, Toothache and Back pain.
You can give 5ml of syrup with 1ml water. Also, few sips of water can be given after the administration of medication.
Kindly give the antibiotics and medication for fever as advised and do the necessary follow-up.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
