Suggest safe medicine to get rid of fever
Patient: My wife aged 36 years is suffering from fever for the last 3 days. Her temp has been fluctuating from 100 - 104. After consulting a physician she has been advised to take the below medicine: Dicloran-A (Twice daily); Timo-O (Twice Daily), Cetrizine (Twice Daily) and Pantraz-D (Twice daily). Her state has not improved much excepting that the fever now comes down to normal and after 10 hours again reaches 100/ 101. Please advise. Doctor: Hi Dear,Welcome to HCM.Understanding your concern. As per your query you have high fever since 3 days and it is regressive down  an dif regress comes back again which could be due to viral infection. Need not to worry much. I would suggest you to visit general physician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done to find out exact level of infection in your body. Till now keep going with the course which your physician already prescribed you as it will take 7-10 days for viral fever to come back to normal. Take anti-inflammatory and NSAIDS combination. Drink plenty of fluids. You should take proper rest. Hope your concern has been resolved.Get Well Soon.Best Wishes,Dr. Harry Maheshwari
