Why Has Infant Been Lethargic And Slept Excessively Despite Being Given Panadol And Nurofen?
My 2yo has been lethargic and slept alot more than usual today. He has had a temperature of about 39 degrees for the past 7 hours. Nurofen and panadol have brought it down for 20 minutes then straight back up. Has been given a shower and face washer. Also has really foul smelling farts
