Patient's question:
The child has had a high fever for two days, with the fever subsiding at night but returning in the morning. At 8 PM yesterday, they took fever-reducing medication, which worked, but the temperature is now 35.5 degrees. What should I do? Can they still take Si Ji Anti-Viral? A blood test at the hospital showed nothing wrong, suggesting it's viral. The child now has small red bumps on their body. Thank you for your reply. The child has never had a fever before. With a temperature of 35.5 degrees, can they still take Si Ji Anti-Viral? The child's warmth has been taken care of.Doctor's answer:
The current body temperature of the child is not caused by taking the Chanshengqiong Antiviral Oral Liquid, but because the child's thermoregulatory center has not matured. Inappropriate use of fever-reducing medication can prevent the thermoregulatory center from adjusting properly, leading to low body temperature in the child. It is recommended that you pay attention to the dosage when giving the child fever-reducing medication. Currently, it is important to give the child more water to enhance drug metabolism, and the condition will improve over time.
