Hello,

Short answer: Yes

Detailed answer:

If the baby has high fever then you have to dominate it even though the baby is not eating for the time being.

The loss of appetite is due to the disease, but the baby should be protected against high fever because if it is very high (104 or more) than there is high risk for convulsions.

Therefore, give Crocin even with empty stomach and try to give your baby liquids in order to keep her hydrated. Feeding the baby in these conditions will require lots of patience from your side.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ervin Toçi
