[|Human|] Hello sir, My daughter is 2yrs 2months old. She is suffering from fever from today night. I was giving her calpol -250 mg oral suspension. Is it possible to cure her & how many times & how many doses i will give her. She is also suffering from wet cough. Please sir suggest me & guide me.
[|AI|]  Hi welcome to Chat Doctor 1. Coming to IST question, can cal pol cure her, Cal pol contains paracetamol which is safest Chat Doctor. Disease responsible for fever usually resolves itself by 3- 7 days, as most are due to viral infections resolve by that time, if there is any danger sign / symptom you need to consult your doctor (baby dull even when fever is down, passing less urine than normal, poor oral acceptance, c/o throat pain or difficulty in ingestion, or any sound during breathing, rapid breathing, continuous high fever not relieved with paracetamol and tepid sponging, convulsion, or any change in symptoms like appearance of rash, cold extremities). Coming to 2nd question :- how many doses and interval, assuming 12 kg your baby needs 180 mg (15 mg / kg) that is 3.6 ml of Cal pol 250 mg suspension, at this dose you can repeat it after every 6 hours. If fever is more, does not come down you can always do tepid sponging .3. Regarding cough, she needs to be seen by doctor before suggesting any medicine. Thanks
