Hi...I understand your concern.

For headache and fever - Paracetamol can be given in the dose of 15mg/kg/dose (maximum ceiling dose of 500mg) every 4-6th hourly that too only if fever is more than 100F. I suggest not using combination medicines for fever, especially with Paracetamol.

For nausea - Tablet Ondansetron 4mg thrice a day 30 minutes before food.

But Ondansetron is a prescription medicine and you will need one for it.
