Children with a fever in the middle of the night can be treated with antipyretics such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen under the guidance of a doctor if their temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees. For patients with a temperature below 38.5 degrees, physical cooling methods such as warm water or alcohol baths are needed to reduce the fever.
