Having a high fever, vomiting, and a heavy head for two days is very exhausting. Since you are vomiting, your body may not be absorbing the Crocin (paracetamol) properly, and it is important not to take any more doses to avoid overloading your system. Please focus on taking small, frequent sips of water or oral rehydration solutions to stay hydrated. Because these symptoms have lasted for two days, I highly recommend consulting a doctor nearby. They can safely evaluate your symptoms, find the cause of the fever, and help you get the right treatment to feel better soon.

Should my daughter, who is taking Zincovit and Crocin 500 for suspected COVID-19 after 10 days of a low fever, headache, and tiredness, start taking ivermectin, and is it safe for her to end her isolation on day 14?

Please do not start ivermectin, as current medical guidelines do not recommend it for treating COVID-19. It is best to continue with her supportive care, including multivitamins (Zincovit) and paracetamol (Crocin 500) to manage her headache and fever. Regarding isolation, it is generally safe for her to end it on day 14, provided she has been fever-free for at least 24 hours without using fever-reducing medicine and her other symptoms are steadily improving. Keep monitoring her, and ensure she gets plenty of rest and fluids.

Is it safe to use a breathing machine (nebulizer) and give Crocin DS to someone who has a cough, a fever of 100.5?F, and a low oxygen level of 88% to 89%?

While Crocin DS (paracetamol) is safe to help lower the 100.5?F fever, the most important detail is the oxygen level of 88% to 89%. An oxygen level below 92% is low and means they need to be evaluated by a doctor right away. Please seek emergency medical care immediately so healthcare professionals can safely assess their breathing and provide the right oxygen support. Please avoid starting nebulizer treatments without a doctor's direct guidance.

My child's fever is not coming down with Crocin DS; what is the correct dosage of Meftal P 100mg syrup for him?

I understand your concern. Since Crocin DS has not lowered the fever, Meftal-P (Mefenamic Acid) can be used, but the exact dosage depends strictly on your child's weight, not just age. The standard pediatric dose is 4 to 6 mg per kg of body weight, given up to three times daily after food. For example, a child weighing 10 kg would typically require 2.5 ml of Meftal P (100mg/5ml) syrup per dose. Please consult your pediatrician with your child's current weight to get the precise dose. Keep him hydrated and use tepid sponging to help reduce the fever safely.

Could a fever of 100?F that hasn't gone down for 24 hours be dengue fever, even though I have no body aches and have taken Sinarest and Crocin?

A mild fever of 100?F for 24 hours is very common and often due to simple viral infections. While dengue is possible, the absence of body aches makes it less typical. Importantly, both Sinarest and Crocin contain paracetamol. Taking them together can lead to an accidental overdose, which can harm your liver. Please stop taking both together. Stick to just one, like Crocin (paracetamol), as directed. Keep well-hydrated, rest, and if your fever persists past three days, rises, or if you develop rashes, please consult a doctor for a simple blood test.

Why has Crocin stopped working for my severe headache that has lasted for 15 days, and what should I do to get relief?

It is common for paracetamol (Crocin) to stop working if taken frequently, as your body can develop a tolerance, or it can even trigger 'medication overuse headaches.' Because this has lasted for two weeks, please consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation. They can safely guide you toward more effective treatments. For now, try to rest in a dark, quiet room and keep well-hydrated.

What should I do if my 2-year-old son is acting sluggish and his nighttime high fever of 102?F is not coming down, even though he has been taking Crocin DS four times a day and Sinarest AF three times a day for three days and has developed red spots on his face?

It is very important to have him evaluated by a pediatrician immediately. Additionally, both Crocin DS and Sinarest AF contain paracetamol (acetaminophen). Giving both together can accidentally lead to an unsafe dose of this medicine. Please stop giving these medications and take him to the nearest clinic or emergency room right away so a doctor can examine him, find the cause of his fever and rash, and safely help him feel better.
