Can a 5-Year-Old Baby Use Rectal Suppositories for a High Fever?

Question

Is there a rectal suppository that can be used for a child with a high fever?

Answer

For a 5-year-old baby with a high fever, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be used to treat mild infections. If antibiotics are needed, Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium Granules or Cefixime Granules can be taken. If there is coughing or phlegm, Fresh Bamboo Decoction Oral Liquid or Children’s Mahan Granules can be administered. At the same time, it is important to avoid spicy, cold, and other irritating foods, and to enhance physical activity and strengthen the body’s constitution.
