Suggest Medication For Persistent High Fever In A Child Despite Taking Lariago
My 9 years old daughter with weight of of 37.5 kgs. is having high grade fever for last 3 days. 103.5 to 104 .5 degree Fahrenheit. After all the blood profile tests done Dr. Has prescribed Lariago 250 2 .1/2 tablets for 2 nights and 1.1/2 tablets for 3rd night but the problem is she cannot take tablets and I ve no idea of any equalivalent available syrop and required dose to match it as prescribed by Dr..pls.ans.it at the earliest.
hello, i can understand your concern. your doctor has prescribed anti malaria medication. the dosage you have mentioned doesnt come in syrup form. i wpuld suggest you to admit your daughter in a hospital. intravenous injection of chloroquine would be given as the fever is not coming down. mostly i.v fluids also would be required. kindly do not delay.
hope this helps. wish your daughter has a speedy recovery
