Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi dear
welcome to the HCM,
Tepid water sponging is quite important when ever baby is warm.
Paracetamol syrup @ 15 mg /kg 4 to 6 hourly to be given for the relief of fever.
Frisium is for only anticipated febrile seizures, but it will not reduce the fever.
Plenty of fluids to be given,
Take care of the nutrition.
Please consult your pediatrician as the fever has crossed the 4 th day.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks
