Quick tips

Meflens Oral Suspension is used to reduce pain as well as fever in children and infants.
Do not take it with any other medicine containing paracetamol (drugs for pain/fever or cough-and-cold) without asking your doctor first.
Maintain a log of your child’s temperature. If you do not see any improvement, contact your child’s doctor for advice.
Keep a track of the dose and the frequency in which you have given this medicine to your child. This will help prevent overdosing.
Practice self-care tips like:
1. Give plenty of fluids to your child to ensure proper body hydration (water-levels)
