Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me if it's okay for an eight-month-old baby to take Motrin when they have a fever?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it can be taken. Generally, it does not show side effects. Usually, medication can be taken when the body temperature is 38.5 degrees Celsius. It is necessary to properly address the need to increase nutrition and supplement vitamins and trace elements. In your case, you can first use alcohol to bathe and reduce fever, and then identify the cause of the fever. There are many reasons that can cause fever. The most common cause is infection, followed by connective tissue diseases, malignant tumors, and so on. Don't rush to take medication first.
