What should I do if my child vomits after taking medicine for a fever?

Patient's question:

Child has a fever~ Vomited right after taking the medicine... Is it that the medicine has no effect at all... Besides fever reducers, what other methods can quickly lower body temperature? Thank you?

Doctor's answer:

Dear Inquirer,
If the baby vomits after taking the medicine, it generally indicates that the medication will not take effect. How high is the fever?
Suggestion: If the temperature is not very high, you can use lukewarm water to wipe the palms, soles of the feet, armpits, and back of the knees for physical cooling. If the temperature is high, you can use a fever-reducing suppository.
The above is the advice for the question "How to treat a child who vomits after taking medicine for a fever?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
