There are many herbs that can help when fevers are present. Fevers will usually go down once the bowel has been opened with an enema, especially in young children. Catnip or garlic tea can be used as an enema solution to help bring down the fever.

Herbs that promote perspiration can also be used to bring down fevers when taken as warm teas, or as extracts taken with warm water. Some of the herbs that have proven useful here include yarrow, peppermint, chamomile, catnip and capsicum.
