Help re: alternating tylenol and motrin

DS, 5 yo, has a viral fever. Spent whole kodning at urgent care...

Fever is nasty and persistent. I have never dealt with a fever like this before. How do I alernate back and forth between motrin and tylenol? How mNy hours between each does?

Thanks so much for any advice you can give me. This is a nasty nasty virus...

Every three to four hours you give the opposite medication.
