For pure fever, acetaminophen like Crocin or Dolo is usually the first choice because it is gentler on the stomach. Ibuprofen is great if you also have body pain, but never take it on an empty stomach. If the fever stays high for 2 days, please consult a doctor.
Whenever I get a fever during exams, paracetamol is my go-to, it just works quietly. Ibuprofen is too strong for me and makes my stomach feel weird. Better to stick to simple Crocin unless your doc says otherwise.
Haan na, even I get confused, but Crocin is much safer for fever. Ibuprofen works fast but it can cause thoda acidity issues. Better to take paracetamol first and see, ho na?
I usually prefer acetaminophen for mild fever because my body is already sensitive to hormonal changes and gut issues. Ibuprofen can sometimes cause acidity, at least in my experience. Always best to ask your gynac or GP before trying new painkillers.

Acetaminophen is generally preferred to bring down a high temperature gently. Along with the medicine, please try placing a damp cloth on your forehead and rest in a well-ventilated room. Let the body rest and recover naturally.
