Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day
Kindly recheck the osage of Paracetamol you are giving.
The dosage is 15 mg / kg / dose given 6th hourly.
In the absence of other symptoms the fever is likely to be due to non specific viral fever and is self limiting.
Do get back to me for further queries
Take Care
