Question
The child has had a high fever for a day and a half. We have tried fever-reducing suppositories, fever-reducing patches, and Tylenol, but the body temperature remains high, with the highest reaching 39.2 degrees and the lowest at 38.2 degrees. In the past, we have used Piperacillin 1.0 and Yanhu Ning 60MG intravenous infusion for treatment, and a white blood cell count was conducted. What solutions are there?
Answer
Fever occurs when pyrogens directly affect the temperature regulation center or when there is dysfunction in the temperature regulation center, leading to excessive heat production or poor heat dissipation. When a child’s body temperature exceeds 38.5℃, it is advisable to drink more water and use physical cooling methods. If the body temperature does not exceed 38.5℃, fever-reducing medications such as Paracetamol, Children’s Tylenol, or Meropenem can be used, but it is best to do so under the guidance of a pediatrician. If the fever persists, a comprehensive examination should be conducted. Wishing the child a speedy recovery!
