My daughter's been coughing since October and at first, it was just like any normal cough. After three days of this, we took her to see her pediatrician who prescribed some meds and antibiotics. She's basically been on one medication or another since then. We've even seen a few doctors, like a general physician, another pediatrician, and a pulmonologist, but nothing's working. She coughs so much at night that sometimes she ends up vomiting. We're really worried and feel helpless about her health. She's on an inhaler and other meds for her cough and cold right now. Can someone offer any advice for us concerned parents?

View allI'm feeling a bit concerned about my 4 and a half-year-old's fever. It's hovering around 100.5 degrees. Is this something I should be worried about and consider visiting a doctor for? Also, what would be the right dosage of Calpol 250 mg to give?
For a child of 4 and a half years old with a fever of around 100.5F, it is advisable to monitor the fever closely and ensure they stay hydrated. You can give Calpol (Paracetamol) in a dosage of 250 mg. The recommended dosage for children aged 4-6 years is 5 ml (250 mg) every 4-6 hours as needed, with no more than 4 doses in 24 hours. Make sure to use a proper measuring device to administer the medication accurately. If the fever persists or if your child develops any other concerning symptoms, then it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
