Is it safe to continue giving my son half a tablet of Dolo 650, Allercet syrup, and Cofarest syrup twice a day now that his fever is gone but he still has a mild cough and runny nose?

Since his fever is gone, you should stop giving him the Dolo 650 (paracetamol) tablet. Both Dolo and Cofarest syrup contain paracetamol, and continuing both without a fever can risk an accidental overdose. For his mild cough and runny nose, you can continue the Allercet (cetirizine) syrup as prescribed to help with the congestion. However, because Cofarest also contains multiple active ingredients, it is best to consult his pediatrician before continuing it. Keeping him hydrated and giving him warm fluids will also bring great comfort.
