High Temperature in Children

A high temperature is very common in young children. The temperature usually returns to normal within 3 or 4 days.

A normal temperature in babies and children is about 36.4C, but this can vary slightly from child to child.

A high temperature is 38C or more.

A high temperature is the body’s natural response to fighting infections like coughs and colds.

Many things can cause a high temperature in children, from common childhood illnesses like chickenpox and tonsillitis, to vaccinations.

Your child might:

feel hotter than usual when you touch their back or chest
feel sweaty
look or feel unwell

Use a digital thermometer, which you can buy from pharmacies and supermarkets, to take your child’s temperature.

You can usually look after your child or baby at home. The temperature should go down over 3 or 4 days.

DO

give them plenty of fluids
look out for signs of dehydration
give them food if they want it
check on your child regularly during the night
keep them at home
give them paracetamol if they’re distressed or unwell
get medical advice if you’re worried about your child

DON’T

do not undress your child or sponge them down to cool them, a high temperature is a natural and healthy response to infection
do not cover them up in too many clothes or bedclothes
do not give aspirin to children under 16 years of age
do not combine ibuprofen and paracetamol, unless a GP tells you to
do not give paracetamol to a child under 2 months
do not give ibuprofen to a child under 3 months or under 5kg

Product Details

Before giving the medicine to your child
This medicine is suitable for most people but a few people should not use it. If you are in any doubt, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
Do not give your child this medicine…
■ If s/he has ever had a bad reaction to any of the ingredients.
■ If s/he is taking anything else with paracetamol in it.
■ If s/he has phenylketonuria (a hereditary disease discovered at birth.)
If any of these applies, get advice from a doctor or pharmacist without using CALPOL®.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist…
■ If your child has serious kidney or liver problems.
■ If your child is taking any other medicines including:
■ metoclopramide or domperidone (used to treat nausea and vomiting cholestyramine (used to treat high cholesterol)
■ anticoagulants (drugs that thin the blood, such as warfarin)
■ anticonvulsants (drugs to treat epilepsy)
If you are not sure about the medicine your child is taking, show the bottle or pack to your pharmacist.
If any of these bullet points apply, talk to a doctor or pharmacist.
If adults take this medicine:
The following additional warnings are included in case an adult takes this product.
■ You can use this medicine while you are taking oral contraceptives (‘the pill’), but it may not work so well on your pain or fever.
■ If you drink large amounts of alcohol, talk to your doctor before you take this medicine. You may be more open to the side effects of paracetamol. If this applies to you, talk to a doctor before use.
■ If necessary, the medicine can be used during pregnancy. You should use the lowest possible dose that reduces your pain and/or your fever and use it for the shortest time possible. Contact your doctor or pharmacist if the pain and/or fever are not reduced
or if you need to take the medicine more often.
■ Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine if you are breastfeeding

Some of the ingredients can cause problems
■ This medicine contains 8 mg aspartame (E951) in each tablet. Aspartame is a source of phenylalanine.
It may be harmful if you have phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare genetic disorder in which phenylalanine builds up because the body cannot remove it properly.
■ This medicine contains mannitol (E421), which may have a mild laxative effect.
■ This medicine contains 0.00064mg benzyl alcohol in each tablet. Benzyl alcohol may cause allergic reactions. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have a liver or kidney disease. This is because large amounts
of benzyl alcohol can build-up in your body and may cause side effects (called “metabolic acidosis”).
■ This medicine contains 0.0011g glucose in each tablet. If you have been told by your doctor that you have an intolerance to some sugars, contact your doctor before taking this medicine

If your child shows any of these signs, stop giving
