<s>[INST] Hi Doctor,My son three years ols was suffering from viral fever from last 4 days. Today is 5th day. Today he is better.As per doctor we were given calpol and meftal as fever was crossing 103. Given the medicine in a gap of 4 to 5 hrs. First day given only calpol. As fever was not redicing started with meftal. Is that okay to give meftal and calpol alternately. Will it have any side effectsRegardsDivya [/INST] Hi,Both medicines are for fever and pain.Both are good medicines and comparatively safe medicine for children.Youcan give either as and when required.Give enough water to your child.Ok and take care. </s>
