Do you need to take fever reducers for your child's temperature?Many people think that if the body temperature is higher, they need to take antipyretics, which is less than physical cooling. However, as long as the child (2 months) has uncomfortable symptoms due to fever, antipyretics can be used, and it is not limited to a fixed body temperature.

The purpose of reducing fever is to make a sick child comfortable. When the child's body temperature has exceeded and his spirit is still very good, eating, drinking and playing normally, and there is no discomfort, he can also consider not reducing fever and continue to observe; When the child's body temperature does not reach, he may be in poor spirits, irritable, tired, and unwell, and he can take antipyretics in time.

What is the baby's body temperature to be considered a fever?In fact, our temperature is divided into body surface temperature and core temperature, generally the armpit temperature we use now belongs to the body surface temperature, and our ear temperature also belongs to the body surface temperature, but in foreign countries some may measure the rectal temperature, then this belongs to the core temperature, and the rectal temperature exceeds 38 degrees, we call it fever. If the armpit temperature is more than one degree, it is considered a fever. The body surface temperature is generally lower, mainly because the body surface can dissipate heat.

It is also classified according to the temperature of the fever, which is based on the temperature of the armpit:

Low-grade fever: Degree is a low-grade fever, such a fever, it is generally not recommended to use medicine, such as children's teething, vaccinations may occur such a temperature.

Moderate fever: If the child is not feeling well, we may need to use antipyretics as appropriate.

High fever: 39-41 degrees, it is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible

Ultra-high fever: greater than 41 degrees, immediately seek medical attention.

The impact of different temperatures on children may be different, children with low-grade fever are a little feverish and a little crying, and then the temperature rises and the symptoms of discomfort in the child become more and more obvious.

What kind of antipyretic medicine should be used for children?

Babies older than 2 months old, with axillary temperature and above, or febrile children with extreme discomfort and abnormal mood due to fever, should be given oral acetaminophen at a dose of 15mg kg each time under the guidance of a doctor, with a minimum interval of 6 hours between 2 doses.

Children >6 months of age can use acetaminophen or ibuprofen under the guidance of a doctor, with a minimum interval of 6 hours between doses, and the dose of ibuprofen is 10 mg kg each time.

Ibuprofen and acetaminophen are both drugs for children and are relatively safe. Compared with acetaminophen, ibuprofen has a better antipyretic effect on children, and it lasts for a longer time, so it is recommended to take it orally at night to reduce the discomfort of children during sleep.

It should be emphasized that acetaminophen and ibuprofen should not be used interchangeably for antipyretic in children, which not only will not clearly increase the antipyretic effect, but also increase the probability of the occurrence of the drug***.

If the body temperature does not drop significantly after using an antipyretic drug, indicating that the antipyretic effect of this drug is not good, you can change to another drug after an interval of 6 hours under the guidance of a doctor to reduce fever.
