Should We Give Combiflam Suspension For Fever?
My 4 and half year old baby is suffering from cough and cold and fever due to it. Crocin suspension of 120 mg/5 ml power has been given 3 times a day (each time 5 ml). But fever is not down completely. After every 3 hours, she again has fever. Fever is not more than 100. should we give her combiflam suspension ?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Combiflam syrup may be given for control of fever. Paracetamol is given in a dose of 15 mg/kg body weight every 4 to 6 hourly depending on the gravity of fever.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose. Please feel free to ask any more queries if required.
Take care.
