It is actually quite common for a fever to bounce back as the Crocin (paracetamol) wears off. First, ensure you are giving the correct dose based on his weight, keeping a minimum of 4 to 6 hours between doses (maximum 4 times in 24 hours). Keep him hydrated with plenty of fluids and dress him in light clothing. If he is active and drinking well, you can monitor him. However, please consult his pediatrician if the fever lasts more than 3 days, or if he becomes unusually lethargic, has trouble breathing, or refuses fluids.
