I'm really worried because my mom has a 100-degree fever since 4 PM. She took Meftal Forte, but it's been three hours and it hasn't gone down. I'm wondering if she can take Dolo 500 or 650 now. What should I do?

Since the fever hasn't come down after Meftal Forte, you can give her Dolo 500 mg. However, it's important to monitor her condition closely. If the fever persists or worsens, consider seeking medical attention to rule out any underlying infections.
