Brief Answer:
I need to know his body weight

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Yes, Medomol Drops (Paracetamol) can be given to him. The dose is 15mg/kg/dose. Please let me know his body weight and I would let you know the dose appropriate for him.

You have done the right thing by giving Hicet AX. The mild fever is possibly due to a viral infection. It may take a few days for things to be back to normal once again. You would have to be patient till then.

I will await your response.
