Speaker: Brianna Piché, ND, IBCLC, FABNP, RH (AHG) We take a look at the physiology of fever, potential benefits of fever and dive into the myths/ fears around fever in children. We review several common causes of fever in children, including viral and bacterial infections, and discuss indications for fever suppression or treatment. We also review botanical febrifuges and pharmacologic antipyretics, administration in children, and interventions for several common causes of fever (e.g., ear infections, throat infections, viral coughs).
