The easiest way to reduce the temperature with the help of medication. Of course, the treatment needs a doctor, but most recommendations are to products based on paracetamol and ibuprofen. They work effectively regardless of the cause of the temperature rise. If the temperature rose above 40°C, it is better to take aspirin or analgin.
