Vaccine
Do we need to give paracetamol to prevent fever after vaccine or can we do without? Should we take the optional vaccines too? Thanks!
Give the paracetamol only if baby develops fever. I let my daughter go for the optional vaccines (rotavirus-most common cause of diarrhoea in kids, pneumococcal-to prevent serious lung infection, chicken pox). To me, very worth it
The nurse/dr will advise accordingly during each vaccination (at polyclinics). The 2nd dose hep B at 1 month wont cause fever.
Not all children will have fever after vaccination hence don’t have to give paracetamol if there is no fever.
Be careful of high fever . Do monitor the temperature and give the appropriate fever medicine
Do not give medication when it is not needed. Not all babies will have fever
No please don't give paracetamol if there's no fever
Can do without med if no fever
No fever then no need to give
Do without Med when no fever
Can do without
