She was administered combiflam syrup 6 ml but yesterday night there was no let up and fever remained at 102 deg F. the Combiflam syrup was changed to crocin syrup after which she is resting a bit?

Brief answer :
Give cough and cold syrup also
Detailed answer :
Hi, welcome to HCM.
You are giving medicine for fever only while your child has cold also, in my opinion, you should give sinarest Syrup 5ml three times a day for 3 days along with crocin.
If fever persists, then you need to do some investigations like cbc, NS1 Antigen test and probably put the child on antibiotics.
I hope this will help you. Take care.
