Fever In Children
Did you know that children suffering from illness lead to more primary care consultations than any other age group?2a Even young children can be at risk of developing coughs, colds, ear aches and fevers.2b
However, the challenge with young children is that they may not always be able to communicate when they are feeling unwell.
Hence, it is important to pay attention to behavioural cues, such as excessive fussiness, difficulty sleeping, or reluctance to eat, as these could indicate the presence of pain or fever.
How To Measure A Fever
A fever in a child is defined as a body temperature of 380C or higher.3a
To see if your child is burning up, you can use a digital ear or forehead thermometer.3b
As a trusted4 name in South Africa, Panado® understands that parents want convenient and great tasting products for their children, including proper dosage instructions.
Dosage details for the Panado® paediatric range of products can be found at https://panado.co.za/dosage-calculator/ and are calculated according to your child's age and weight.
Add in your child's age and weight, and our calculator will automatically calculate how much paracetamol you should give your child, and which product is best suited for your child.
While symptoms persist, the dosage can be repeated every four hours if needed to a maximum of four doses per 24 hours for not longer than five days. The administration method is oral, and for syrups, it's important to shake the bottle before use.
Why Choose Panado® With Paracetamol?
Paracetamol is endorsed by expert bodies worldwide, including the World Health Organization5a for management of fever and mild-to moderate pain in infants and children,5b and is indicated for use in children of all ages5c.
