What Causes Recurrent Fever Despite Taking Tylenol And Ibuprofen?
my wife has been running a fever with temps at 101.5 at times. we have been administering Tylenol and ibuphen to bring temp down to normal. effective for twelve hours or so and then a repeated climb upward. this has been ongoing for seven days, please advise
I suggest you to do a blood count, urine test, X-ray of the chest. Maybe it is a bacterial infection and she needs antibiotics so take an appointment with your doctor.
