Ibuprofen Paracetamol Caffeine Tablet for Fever

Ibuprofen, paracetamol, and caffeine tablets are usually not recommended for treating fever, as they are designed more for pain relief and headaches. For fever, paracetamol alone is generally sufficient. However, it's best to consult with a general physician to get proper guidance on the right medication for your specific condition.
