My 4 year old has a fever of 101.5. i just gave him tylenol (acetaminophen) but the fever is not declining. can i give him motrin at the same time?

Yes: They do not interfere with each other.I would pick one med or the other & only give as directed. Spend more time making sure the kid is hydrated than worring about fever.
