motrin's just ibuprofen. i think it's mostly for pain, not fever.
anything with acetominophen i know will deal with fever. tylenol, excedrine...B♭3Comment

No aspirine either? they help bring down a fever.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

ibuprofen will help reduce a fever. aspirin, acetopminophen, and ibuprofen are all analgesics. reduce pain, swelling and fever.I wasn't born with enough middle fingers.

Fever is a defense mechanism against prokaryotic infections but that doesnt mean it cant harm us too.We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

My 6 month old had a fever last night ( along with an ear infection) and according to our public health line, both ibuprofen or acetominaphen will bring down a fever. Either will reduce the fever by up to 2 degrees Centigrade but will not completely eliminate a fever. According to the nurse on the line, ibuprofen usually works a little better and for a little longer
Since the fever may be a necessary part of your body fighting infection, you treat the fever merely for the person's comfort unless the fever gets very high. IIRC they said 40.5 was the trigger before they started to get concerned.
We tried tylenol on our little guy and when he stayed at 39+ , we gave him the ibuprofen which seems to have reduced the fever and let him sleep.You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment
