Fever

Helping to ease the symptoms

When you’re feeling ill, your body temperature rises to help kill germs and infection. Ibuprofen – the active ingredient in Nurofen – helps tackle the symptoms of fever (including shivering and a high temperature). You’ll find two products below that can help manage a fever – as well as more details on fevers and alternative therapies.

Nurofen Cold and Flu

As well as ibuprofen to ease your headache, Nurofen Cold and Flu also contains pseudoephedrine - a non-sedating decongestant which helps relieve congestion.
