The medication you administered contains paracetamol and mefenamic acid, which is commonly used to control high, stubborn fevers in children. However, because the safe dose depends strictly on your child's weight, please consult your pediatrician before giving any further doses.\n\nIf the fever does not come down, do not give additional medicine. Instead, dress your child in lightweight clothing, keep the room comfortably cool, and use lukewarm water sponging (avoid cold water) to help lower the temperature. Ensure they stay well-hydrated. If the fever remains very high after two hours, or if your child is unusually sleepy, vomiting, or has difficulty breathing, seek immediate medical attention.
