Hello, 26 years old, man, had a fever of 40.5. He takes sumamed, took a sachet of Nimesil for fever (a moment before he also took sumamed). After a little over an hour when measuring the temperature, he was 36.4. Is it normal that for a little over an hour the fever dropped by 4 degrees?

In case of such a rapid decrease in temperature, after using Nimesil, it is recommended to observe the patient. If you experience additional symptoms, such as impaired consciousness, you should consult your doctor. Body temperature has not been unduly lowered. There may be a feeling of cold, which does not pose a health risk. If there is no possibility of stationary consultation, it is possible to use teleadvice offered m.in by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja Perhaps other factors than the drugs used (such as excessive cooling of the body) also had a decrease in temperature. In this case, cooling should be discontinued. There is also the possibility of incorrectly carrying out one or two measurements. The drug Nimesil is a drug with mainly analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. According to the leaflet, do not use the drug in patients m.in with fever or flu. In addition, the drug does not cause an excessive decrease in body temperature: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/53354/nimesil-granulat-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/apteki About why Nimesil should not be used in patients with fever, we wrote in the opinion: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/31789/nimesil-dlaczego-nie-mozna-podawac-nimesilu--osobie-z-goraczka I encourage you to read the additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/75418/sumamed-tabletki-powlekane/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-przeciwbolowe-stosowac https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/goraczka
