For example, you may be prescribed an antiviral medication if you have influenza and are in a high-risk group.
An antibiotic may be necessary to treat a bacterial infection such as bacterial pneumonia or strep throat.
Always take the full course of a prescribed antibiotic, even if your fever comes down and you start feeling better. Aspirin was derived from willow before it was synthesized in the lab and is still sometimes regarded as a natural remedy for fever.
Others herbs sometimes used to treat fever include meadowsweet, yarrow, black haw, cramp bark, birch, black cohosh, Indian pipe, and feverfew. Use extreme caution when using any of these herbal remedies, especially for children. Some have naturally occurring derivatives of salicylic acid, which is the component of aspirin that can cause Reye syndrome. Talk to your healthcare provider or your child's pediatrician first.
