Take Tylenol (acetaminophen): Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 1000 mg is excellent treatment for fever, and can help to relieve the aches and pains often associated with fever. If the acetaminophen alone is not enough to relieve your fever and discomfort, you can take Ibuprofen 600 mg in addition to the Tylenol. Rest, and drink plenty of fluids. See a doctor if fever persists more than 2-3 days and/or uncertain of the cause of fever
