Colpol(paracetamol) is use in the symptomatic treatment of fever and pain. GP might have given it as a prophylactic measure. 34.7 degree celsius is below normal. You can skip the third dose.
You need to observe your baby for development of fever, irritability for few days. Hope the above information helps. Thanks.
