Suggest Treatment For Headache And Fever In Kid

Son is 7 (8 in october), weighs approximately 73 lbs. Has headache, fever was 102 before I gave him children s advil at 8 am. Complained head hurt again, and starting to get warm again (but not too bad). Gave tylenol at 12 noon, but he threw up immediately. Should I try to give him tylenol again, or wait until 2 pm and give advil?

Hi,
Understand your concern.
As tylenol given is vomited out and temperature is there, you can give tylenol again or advil.
Do not wait till second dose of Advil.
Give him plenty of water and keep him well hydrated.
Ok and take care.
