Fever: When to Call Your Child’s Pediatrician | AAP

Dr Nathan Chomilo, a general pediatrician and fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, has seen it all. He gives parents tips on over-the-counter treatments for fever, dosing guidelines for acetaminophen and ibuprofen, when parents should be concerned about fever, and when it’s OK to take the wait-and-see approach.
