Pediatrician 's  Response
Thank you for the query.
Kindly follow instructions of the doctor. Do not give mefanorm more than prescribed.
At 100.5 you need not give any medicine. Fever is a form of body's defence mechanism too.
At times a disease gets longer to heal.
Kindly be patient and follow instructions.
He may decide after results of investigations of may prescribe further investigations.
This is a normal protocol.
I find this answer helpful
