HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your son Acetaminophen is the right drug (calpol) for fever and other system of medicine wont work here and not advisable to treat simultaneously with both the system of medicine, underlying cause of fever need to be found out, usually antipyretic takes half an hour to bring down the temperature if given with right calculated dose, take care and have a nice day.
