What Can I Use to Reduce a Fever if My Daughter is Also Vomitting?

Any time a child has a high fever (more than 102 degrees Fahrenheit or 39 degrees Celsius) it's a good idea to check in with your doctor's office. High fever and vomiting should always prompt a call to the doctor's office. While most fevers in children are caused by viruses and don't necessarily need medical attention, your child's doctor or nurse will want to ask a few more questions to see whether medical attention would be a good idea.

Ibuprofen and acetaminophen are both good at bringing down fevers. Both come in liquid and pills (including chewable pills); only acetaminophen comes in a suppository that can be put inside the rectum. To help fever when a child has nausea or vomiting, I usually recommend one of the by-mouth preparations first, with a small amount of water.

Be aware that ibuprofen can cause stomach irritation in some children — so if there's a stomachache along with the vomiting, acetaminophen may be the better bet. If the medicine comes right back up, try a rectal ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
