Question
What antibiotics can a child with high fever take, and what should be done about continuous coughing?
Answer
Hello, acetaminophen is generally the first choice for fever reduction in children. Drugs like paracetamol, Tylenol, and Dove are all acetaminophen. Its antipyretic effect is gentle and lasting, and the use of standard doses is safe and reliable for fever reduction, with few adverse reactions. When choosing a medication, you can select based on the child’s age and the type of dosage form they can tolerate (tablets, drops, solution, chewable tablets, etc.).
