If a baby has a severe fever, it may cause convulsions, so timely treatment is necessary for the baby's fever. There are many methods currently used to reduce fever, including antipyretic drugs, physical antipyretics, antipyretic patches, etc. Antipyretic patches are easy to use, have good antipyretic effects, and are often favored by mothers. However, baby antipyretic patches should generally not exceed a few hours?
Baby antipyretic patches are usually applied for 8 hours, and their effective duration is 8 hours. Therefore, after 8 hours, they should be removed and replaced with new antipyretic patches. Misconceptions about using antipyretic stickers:
1. Antipyretic patches cannot solve all the fundamental causes of fever, they can only have a physical cooling effect. Fever caused by viral colds should be treated promptly.
2. During the development of young children's brains, high fever is not conducive to their brain development. Once a child is found to have a fever, it is necessary to immediately use the physical cooling agent "antipyretic patch" for physical cooling, and then seek medical attention quickly to eliminate the root cause of the fever.
3. Antipyretic patches are auxiliary physical cooling agents that prevent fever from damaging brain cells. They cannot be used to treat all diseases that cause fever, and consumers must distinguish between the concepts of auxiliary and treatment.
4. The physical properties of antipyretic patches determine that their cooling effect is good, but the process is slow, and the entire cooling process will last for 15 minutes to 4 hours. Consumers need to be cautious about antipyretic patches that excessively promote 1-minute cooling or 15 second cooling in the market, in order to avoid freezing the treasure too quickly.
In addition, be careful not to overly rely on antipyretic patches. If the baby has recurrent or persistent high fever, seek medical attention immediately and do not blindly use medication at home, which may worsen the baby's condition.
