Question

When a child has a fever of 39 degrees and the doctor has ordered blood tests and prescribed Shuanghuanglian and Amoxicillin Potassium Clavulanate but not a fever-reducing medicine, do you need to wait until the body temperature reaches above 38 degrees to take ibuprofen capsules?

Answer

Ibuprofen capsules are typically used during fevers. If your child currently has a fever of 39 degrees, you can consider taking them according to the medication instructions. Additionally, it’s recommended to strengthen physical activity and immunity, avoid catching a cold, and adjust clothing according to the weather as needed.
