Is Advil good for a fever?

Yes, Advil (ibuprofen) is a good medication to use for a fever. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, which are involved in the regulation of body temperature, pain, and inflammation. Ibuprofen can help to lower a high fever and provide relief from associated symptoms such as headache, muscle aches, and joint pain.

It's important to note that ibuprofen should not be given to children under 6 months of age. For children aged 6 months and older, the dosage of ibuprofen should be determined by the child's weight and should be given according to the instructions provided on the medication label or as directed by a doctor.

If the fever persists or is accompanied by other severe symptoms, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
