E-DRUG: Fever, antipyretics, and children

E-drug: Fever, antipyretics, and children (3)
---------------------------------------------

Dear e-druggers,

in response to Dr. Dzukou's request for information regarding
educational material for parents about fever in children, we would like
to say that a study was carried out in Italy in 1995 to investigate the
point of view of mothers on the occurrence of fever in their children.
The study, along with a review of Internet sites on the topic, led to
the production of a booklet specific for parents on what to do in the
case of fever. This booklet is presently in distribution and is
available at the Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research site
at:
  http://www.irfmn.mnegri.it/mrpm/MoCh2.htm

The review of Internet sites on fever in children may also be helpful
and can be found at the following address:

We hope this is helpful for the project.
