Abstract
Thirty-five pyrexial children with varying pathologies were entered into an open study to compare the antipyretic effect of Ibuprofen oral suspension and paracetamol suppositories. Temperature was recorded at intervals up to 11 hours after dosing. It was found that both treatments had an antipyretic effect, but that the magnitude and duration of the antipyretic effect was greater with ibuprofen.
