Gastroenteritis with a fever above 38 degrees Celsius, and antipyretic drugs are not effective.

Patient's question:

Last Monday, I suddenly had a fever, followed by diarrhea with stomach pain. I took some Huanglian tablets, and my condition improved. Last night, I had another fever over 39 degrees Celsius. Taking fever-reducing medicine didn't bring it down, so today I took some Huoxiang Zhengqi capsules, and my fever went back up to over 39 degrees Celsius. After taking fever-reducing medicine again, it dropped to 38 degrees Celsius.

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: It should still be caused by inflammation, so it is recommended to start with fever-reducing treatment first.
Medical Advice: You can first go to the nearest clinic to get a fever-reducing injection and continue taking Huanglian tablets orally. You can also add some Norfloxacin capsules. When getting the injection, you can ask the doctor to add some anti-inflammatory medication.
