What should I do if my daughter's fever of 101.6?F and body aches are not coming down even after giving her Combiflam syrup three times and sponging her with cold water?

First, please stop using cold water for sponging, as cold water can cause shivering and actually raise her temperature. Instead, use lukewarm water. Keep her hydrated with plenty of fluids and dress her in light clothing. Since the Combiflam syrup (ibuprofen and paracetamol) hasn't eased her fever after three doses, please consult her pediatrician. They will check the correct dosage based on her weight and investigate the cause of the fever. Seek immediate medical care if she becomes very lethargic, has difficulty breathing, or refuses fluids.
