Drugs to get temp down??

[emmywoo]

Hi All,

I am full of cold/flue and have dreadful cough. I have been taking paracetamol for my temperature but it isnt coming down and feeling worse by the hour. I am also drinking lots and lots of water and hot water with lemon and honey.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I can take?

I think if I were you then I would phone NHS Direct if paracetamol isn't working.

are you feeling better, what did they say. iam the same at the mo.

Paracetamol is the best drug to bring down a temperature. The only other drug with the same properties is Ibuprofen but you would have to check whether this is safe to take whilst pregnant and definitely not if you have asthma xxx
