Review evaluates antipyretic formulations with plant extracts for fever reduction, suggesting potential benefits.
An antipyretic (derived from the words anti- "against" and pyretic "feverish") is a chemical that reduces fever.[1] Antipyretics cause the hypothalamus to override a prostaglandin- induced increase in temperature.[1][2] The body then works to lower the temperature, which results in a reduction in fever.
