according to an adult friend who recently went to the doctor for that
generic i-feel-lousy things, adults should not take aspirin during
flu season either.
i believe fever is one of the body's defenses against whatever critter
is making you sick and that as long as you can tolerate it (and it
is not dangerously high, which i **think** is about 105-6), it is
best not to try to lower your temperature. note this is not an
official medical opinion.
