Frequently asked questions

When should I worry about my child's fever?+

Persistent fever above 102°F for more than 48 hours, or any fever in an infant under 3 months, deserves a same-day visit.

Are vaccines on schedule still safe?+

Yes — the IAP schedule is well-tested. Talk to your pediatrician about any catch-ups.
