What's wrong with the baby being okay during the day but having a fever at night?

Patient's question:

The baby is fine during the day, but feverish at night, with a high temperature of over 39 degrees Celsius. After taking the fever-reducing suspension drops, the fever subsided. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said it was a viral infection, with no specific medicine available, but three types of medicine were prescribed. After taking them, the temperature is 38.7 degrees Celsius. Can the fever-reducing medicine be used? Can fever-reducing medicine be taken with other medications?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to clarify this for you. The issue you mentioned is as follows: The baby has a fever of over 39°C, and there is a consideration of a viral infection. Oral medication is being administered. Currently, the temperature is 38.7°C, and it is acceptable to temporarily take fever-reducing medication. Cephalosporin is not indicated for viral infections. The above advice is for the question "The baby is fine during the day but feverish at night." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
