If your child has a fever and his temperature reaches 38.8 degrees, oral antipyretic drugs are needed to promote recovery. Physical cooling methods such as warm water bath, ice pack and antipyretic patch should also be used for treatment. During treatment, your child's temperature should be checked regularly.
