How much paracetamol (Crocin) should I give my son, and how often can I safely give it to him daily since his fever keeps coming back every four hours?
For paracetamol (Crocin), the safe dosage depends entirely on your child's weight, not just his age. Generally, paracetamol can be given every 4 to 6 hours, up to a maximum of 4 times in 24 hours. Please do not give it more frequently than every 4 hours, even if the fever returns. To ensure he gets the exact, safe dose, please check the packaging for weight-based dosing or consult his pediatrician. Keeping him hydrated and using cool compresses can also help soothe him in between doses.
