Hi there, Thanks for your query in Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor.  I am happy about your concern about your poor relative. At the same time, I want to insist that taking or advising medicines without physicians prescription is not recommended. Acute weakness means a lot to me- but in your relatives case, I take it as being tired with fever. Please do not delay visiting a doctor. All fevers are not the same. Treatment is based only on the cause, which can be found out only with proper evaluation. If there is a delay in visiting the hospital, I suggest you to give him tepid sponging i.e. take a clean cloth. Wet it with water which is neither warm nor cold (in room temperature). Squeeze the excess water out, and wipe his body with it. This helps in reducing the temperature. If temperature is very high, you can give him one tablet of paracetamol 500 mg. I am in India, where good medical care is given free of cost in most Government hospitals. I don't know which country you are in, but I believe that same is true in yours too.  Hope this helps. Feel free to post further queries if any. If no further queries, do post your feedback. Take care.
