Does vitamin C effervescent tablets help reduce fever?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Vitamin C effervescent tablets cannot treat colds; they can only help boost the immune system. When a person has a cold, they can take some cold medicine and use Vitamin C effervescent tablets together, which can help the cold recover more quickly. If one frequently catches colds, they can take appropriate immune-boosting supplements or Vitamin C effervescent tablets.
