Brief Answer:
Tepid sponging is important

Detailed Answer:
Flexon can be given at a minimum interval of 6 hours.
Tyfy can be given at a minimum interval of 4 hours.
You need to make sure that the temperature does not rise high. Continuously use tepid sponging. Make her take a bath (during fever) if necessary. Do not scrub the skin dry. Leave some water to evaporate.
