Meningitis, curious question?


If I had meningitis would panadol cover up the fever?


No I dont think I have it, I am just curious to know that if you thnk you have something serious does panadol take the fever away

panadol is what Australians call paracetemol

panadol is tylenol. it can be used to help bring down a fever of a seriuos illness. as for toradol 30mg iv is sometimes used to help with fevers. meningitis fevers can range up to 105 in adults and the use of tylenol is suggested by use of a suppository

I have no idea what that is , but do you mean , Toradol that is for pain , and inflammation , I'm not sure about fever , but I don't think , so. But u can have Tylenol also with Toradol. But call A pharmacy.

Meningitis is way more serious that affects the spinal fluids. There are three known types. Bacterial meningitis is the most common one among college students. It can only be cured by either antibiotics or regular doses of medicine to subside it. The only way to know for sure that it's meningitis is a lower lumbar test AKA spinal tap.
Panadol is a common cold & fever medicine. It won't even help if you had meningitis due to the imflammation of the meningitis.

I do not think any kind of pain killer, at tablet level would mask the symptoms of meningitis. It would have to be given, by medical experts at far higher levels than we could safely self administer. Glad you do not have it!
