Question

Can children with recurring fever from pneumonia take antipyretics?

Answer

Hello, oral antipyretics can generally control body temperature within 4-6 hours. Once the time passes, the temperature will rise again. The fundamental treatment should still focus on treating the inflammation. You can try giving the child some Ganlike and Magan Granules, and also check their blood counts. If the blood count is high, antibiotic treatment may be necessary, such as azithromycin. Meanwhile, make sure the child drinks plenty of water, and if they have a fever, you can administer ibuprofen suspension. Wishing the child a speedy recovery.
