Hello,
Yes, you can give Meftal P to reduce fever instead of Meghadol but both medications reduce fever.
I will suggest you to continue the Clampkid. You to give syrup Coiminic drops, if he had cold and cough. Along with that, I will advise cold sponging.
I will also suggest you to consult with pediatrician regularly and take medications as advised. Keep him well hydrated and maintain his proper hygiene.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
