First day I gave p250 for every 6 hours and now doctor suggested ibugesic for every 8 hours for 2 days. Temp is coming down and again back to 102. Should I give p250 in between if temp continues.

Hi,
It seems that he might be having viral fever.
Continue with Ibugesic or paracetamol.
You can give paracetamol in between with 3-4 intervals.
Give him plenty of water so that there might be having more sweating leading to fever down.
Ok and take care.
After 3-4 days if fever continues, consult your doctor again and go for investigations.
