Hello,

Thanks for the query.

Treatment of underlying cause of fever and shivering should be started early.
There are many practical approaches to shivering but nothing is much successful.
Chlorphenaramine maleate,mepiridine,tramadol and clonazepam are few drugs which have been used more successfully for treatment of shivering.

Hope this answers your query.
Thank you.
