No one has scientifically proven that antipyretic therapy, which reduces the heat of a fever, is an appropriate treatment for fever and inflammation. Conflicting opinions on the effectiveness of various antipyretic treatments can be found in various journals. Here we consider the basic contrast between the basic action of fever and the basic action of paracetamol.Most people mistake fever for high temperature and think it is dangerous and take paracetamol to reduce temperature as fever is determined by checking temperature.
A high temperature is not a fever, but hyperthermia, which is the opposite of fever. The only cause of fever is inflammation. But hyperthermia is high heat.
Antipyretics are the only substances needed to induce fever in any organism. We can create a fever within a few hours by antipyretics. It cannot cause hyperthermia. Hyperthermia can be created within seconds by using hot objects. It cannot cause fever.
Paracetamol is given to reduce prostaglandin E2. It is not a fever-causing substance. It has hyperthermic and anti-inflammatory properties, and endothelial cells produce prostaglandin E2. It is more abundant after inflammation in the body. From this, the immune system produces prostaglandin E2, which reduces inflammation and increases blood flow to the body or organ, making the body healthier and live longer.
The essence of today's fever treatment is fever can be cured by using fever-creating substances.
The medical book states that paracetamol may cause fever, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, nephropathy, and skin reactions 1. This is not a side effect of paracetamol, but its proper function. Paracetamol is given again to relieve the fever caused by taking paracetamol. There is no science or technology like this anywhere in the world.
Researchers have found that even a single dose of paracetamol can reduce the levels of glutathione, a chemical in the body that reduces inflammation2. Yet paracetamol is classified as an anti-inflammatory. To reduce substances like prostaglandin E2 and glutathione is homicidal. Antipyretic therapy is a necessary and appropriate treatment for hyperthermia and not for fever.
A practicing physician in the field of healthcare in the state of Kerala in India for the last 35 years and am very much interested in basic research. My interest is spread across the fever, inflammation, and back pain. I am a writer. I already printed and published ten books on these subjects. I wrote hundreds of articles in various magazines. I have published 11 articles on fever in various journals. After scientific studies, we have developed 8000 affirmative cross-checking questions. It can explain all queries related to fever.
