It is OK to give metal(mefanamic acid) to the child if he is having fever. It is a commonly used drug I personally prescribe to many of my patients. That being said I would warn you to avoid misusing it as you have to remember that every drug has its side effect and giving any drug unnecessary can cause more harm than benefit.
