Polio dose
Hello sir,
My 1.5 month baby takes his polio dose at a government hospital. As per sisters advice, I gave paracetamol drops to the baby within 3 hours even though she doesn't have any fever symptoms. Is it okay, Did any problem occur due to this?

Measure body temperature every 6 hours. If body temperature more than 100°F, give medicine.
