A member asked:
I gave my 4 year old daughter similasan 8 hours ago but she has a fever now is it safe to give her ibuprofen.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There does not appear to be either acetaminophen or Ibuprofen in Similasan. Giving a dose of Ibuprofen is safe. The dose is 10mg/kg every 6 hours. All the best and I hope she feels better.
