Hi...looks like you baby has recovered from viral illness and paracetamol(Calpol) should be given only if fiver is more than 100F. If there is no fever, no medicine needs to be given. Check temperature with a thermometer before giving a Paracetamol dose and then decide whether to give or not. The minimum gap between two paracetamol doses should be 4 hours. If there is no vomiting, you need not give vomiting medicine.
