Are Crocin And Meftal P The Right Medication For Fever In A Child?
Hello, Paracetamol is the safe and effective antipyretic (drug to lower down the body temperature) for kids. You can also take mefenamic acid (meftal). Meftal-P is a combination of mefenamic acid and paracetamol. Nothing much to worry and your treatment is on the right track. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
