What should I do if my 10-year-old child still has a fever of 102°F after taking Crocin, and is also experiencing occasional stomach aches but has no cough or headache?
Crocin contains paracetamol, which can take 1 to 2 hours to fully work. Please ensure the dose given was correct for his weight. To help him feel more comfortable, you can use lukewarm water sponging and encourage him to sip fluids, which also helps ease his stomach ache. Stomach discomfort can sometimes accompany viral fevers. Please avoid giving extra doses of medication too soon. If the fever remains high, the stomach pain worsens, or he becomes unusually sleepy, please consult your pediatrician promptly for a physical checkup.
