[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your child has fever which could be due to bacterial or viral infection and due to poor immunity of body. Need not worry about it. You can start with Metal P. Monitor dosage for child. You should keep child deny Chat Doctor.  Give mild dose after every 4 holy as Metal contains metonymic acid and paracetamol. You can give Cronin syrup 5ml 4-5 times a day depending upon fever. If fever increases do tepid sponging as well with cold water. Visit pediatrician once if symptoms keeps on persisting. The most common side effects of Metal are gastritis, abdominal discomfort, bleeding, so it should not give on empty stomach and the duration of treatment should not be long. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
