Is it ok to give my 8yr old ibuprofin while he took a dose of cvs children allergy medicine an hour ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Just please give the medication according exactly to the dosing and weight guidelines on the package. The allergy medicine is an antihistamine. Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic (fever reducer) medication.
