When can I safely give Meftal-P to my 4-year-old child after their last dose of Calpol at 9:45 PM?

Asked by Male, 4 · 5 days ago

Since Calpol (paracetamol) and Meftal-P (mefenamic acid) belong to different drug classes, they can be given close together if needed. However, to safely manage his fever, it is best to space them out. You can safely give Meftal-P about 3 to 4 hours after Calpol, meaning anytime after 1:45 AM if he is still uncomfortable. Please ensure you follow the exact dosage prescribed by your pediatrician based on your child's weight, keep him hydrated, and contact his doctor if the fever persists.
