Answer
Based on your description, after a child with a high fever takes Anrak and consumes two-thirds of the dosage, which is less than half the recommended amount, they have been sweating excessively. Generally, it is suggested that they should only sweat slightly; excessive sweating is not advisable. In this situation, attention should be paid to rehydrating with oral rehydration salts, and methods such as nourishing yin or intravenous fluid administration can also be used to aid digestion.
