Hi my 11 month baby has fever&diarrhea i assume its because hes cutting his first tooth,treating with ponstan & calpol he refuses to drink any liquids besides breastmilk, should i be giving him any other medication ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See pediatrician: The medication is okay as a temporary measure as long as the fever is under 101. However, a baby can dehydrate very quickly and if yous see signs of this such as dry tears, decreased urination or sluggishness I woud contact your pediatrician immediately
