    Use Meftal only when fever is >100 deg...it is safe provided you do not exceed the recommended dosage.

    i know this is a late reply...

    but just a word - trust your doctor. if you do not, ask HIM FOR your doubts. thats what they are paid for.
    we ladies here will no ways give the right opinion about medicines than a paediatrician(unless someone is a paed dr themselves) right :)???
