<s>[INST] My kid has got temperature since 1 pm yesterday. Temperaure startedvto shoot up beyon 101 after 9 pm.so far given 4 doses of 6ml crocin ds.its 3 am now he has got 102 + temperature for sometime.cn I give meftal p? if so what is the dosage gap after giving crocin ds should i wait. [/INST] Thanks for posting on Chat Doctor. Metal P contains paracetamol and so does Cronin. It is to be given in dose of 15 mg/kg/dose at a minimum interval of 3-4 hours. Cronin DS syrup contains paracetamol in dose of 240 mg/5ml. You may calculate the required dose in ml as per your children. You may also give your child cold sponging in order to reduce the temperature. Hope that helps. Feel free to revert in case of further queries if any. </s>
