How to treat fever in a baby who is more than one month old

Patient's question:

A 6-month-old baby cannot lift their head, can roll over, has a normal appetite, and shows no significant abnormalities, but sometimes they shake. How should a baby with a fever be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Physical cooling. There are baby fever patches to protect the head. Wipe the body. Then go to the hospital to check. Generally, medication is given only if the temperature is above 38.5. Also, find out what is causing the fever. It is recommended to use Tylenol, combined with Amoxicillin granules for treatment, which is very effective. If the fever continues, intravenous treatment can be administered, which is quite good. Drink more water.
