This summer the twins had a stomach virus that they caught on one of our adventures. Cort was stricken first. Cort is one of those kids who will spike a fever and then can't keep anything down anyhow - he won't let me near him with the oral pain relievers when he is like that. I wish I had known about FeverAll when I snapped this picture of him on our living room floor - yes, he was so sick he fell asleep right there on the rug.
FeverAll is an acemtaminophen suppository. It's an alternative to oral acetaminophen for pain relief and fever reduction. It's been around for more than 30 years and is the only acetaminophen suppository approved for infants as young as six months (which means it would be perfect for teething episodes if teething upsets your little one's belly, like it did my Pierce!).
Disclaimer: I have not tried FeverAll. I was sent a trial package and a cool pack for review purposes, but as my kids have (thankfully!) not been sick, I haven't tried it. I will certainly be grateful to have this on hand next time the stomach flu hits my house again - which will hopefully be a very long time from now.

It is the worst when they are sick and you can do nothing to help! We had to resort to suppositories with my oldest because he would not take the oral pain/fever medication. They can be a life saver.
We have a cool pack at our house and it has really helped when JDaniel was sick.
Oh I always hated when my girls were sick I always felt so helpless they were so tiny.
I am still that way but hundreds of miles away from them and always want to rush to make them comfortable and better. I guess that stays with you.
Oh I hope you don't get that again they are truly nasty. B
Boy are you so right about worring as a parent! ! Have a great day! !!
Thank goodness you don't need it right now; I hope it remains that way for a looooong time!
I feel do badly for bothof you. I can certainly remember times like this and we used suppositories. Yes, the picture was taken atop r. Pleasant here in Virginia....The Blue Ridge Mts. genie
Aww, so scary! I don't have kids yet but I'm sure it's a hard thing to go through. The only way I can relate at the moment is how I feel when an animal is sick and I can't do much about it!
I'm glad you haven't had to try these out yet. I know it must be terrible to know the kids are sick and not be able to just take it away immediately.
I learned that Fever All comes in adult strength. That would be good when we are vomiting and have a fever.
I learned that FeverAll has products for every age group--pretty cool!
I hate it when Amy is sick. I'm like you-I'll do anything to help make her feel better. Now I worry about when she goes off to college in a couple years and gets sick and I'm not there to take care of her. The worrying never does end!
This does look like a great product-and I hope you don't need it for a long time too!
Interesting, we never knew about that.
FeverAll® is a suppository form of acetaminophen,
I used to worry so much when my kids were young about fevers and vomiting and now it's the grand kids! I like the idea of that cool pack!!...:)JP
I hope he feels better. Hugs.
I'm not a parent yet, but still good to know!
suebunting1977at(gmail)dot(com) one thing I learn on the site is Suppository form ensures accurate dosing every time. No need for measuring
i have only every seen feverall products for kids but learned on the website that its made for adults too
Products for all ages...cool!
Hope he's feeling good!!! Would love to try this.
I learned the feverall can be given per rectal route which is easier to manage with children.
I learned there is an adult version!
I learned that it is perfect for children that have issues with taste, additives in liquids or drops, or are upset, restless, experiencing nausea and vomiting. Sounds great!
kristiedonelson(at)gmail(dot)com Thank you.

products for EVERY age! most excellent!
I learned that they will send you a coupon if you fill in your info.
I love that it is color coded and comes in suppositories! Thats what I learned.
I learned from the FeverAll.com website that FeverAll is perfect for children that have issues with taste, additives in liquids or drops, or are upset, restless, experiencing nausea and vomiting.
I learned it also comes in adult strength

I learned that FeverAll prevents worrisome partial dosing due to spilling or spitting out of liquid.

One thing that I learned about fever is that it is actually a good thing. My mom told me, during my sons first fever, that it is like a boiling pot of water on the stove. As long as there is water in there, it is ok.
