How high can I take antipyretics?

Under normal circumstances, you can only take antipyretics if your body temperature is above 38.5 degrees. If it is only a low-grade fever, it is not recommended that you take antipyretics, because antipyretics can quickly reduce the fever, but it actually has some side effects on the body. Eating too much is also very harmful to your health, especially for children and the elderly.

The normal temperature of our human body should be around 37 degrees. If it exceeds 37 degrees, but it is lower than 38 degrees, it is a low-grade fever. In this case, I personally suggest that we can take physical cooling to reduce the fever. For example, you can wipe our armpits with wet towels, or wipe our soles and backs, which can speed up the evaporation of our body temperature and achieve the effect of reducing fever. Or you can put a warm towel on your forehead, which can also have a rapid cooling effect. If it really doesn't work, we can also go to the drugstore to buy that antipyretic patch. In fact, the antipyretic sticker itself is cooled by physical cooling.

But when our body temperature reaches 38.5 degrees, we should use antipyretics to reduce the fever at this time, because at 38.5 degrees, our minds are already dizzy. If you continue to have fever, it is likely to cause serious consequences, so it is the wisest choice to take antipyretics to reduce fever at this time. Of course, using antipyretics to reduce fever can only cure the symptoms, and it is likely to continue to rebound. Everyone should pay attention to this.

For example, if you want to solve the problem from the root, you must cure the cold first, so you must go to the hospital to see a doctor when you have a cold and fever, and then prescribe the right medicine. One part belongs to wind-heat cold, and the other part belongs to viral cold. Different types of colds have different treatment plans. Only by thoroughly treating the cold can we put an end to the phenomenon of repeated fever.
