I don’t know if anyone else has seen this yet, but it has been all over social media the past couple of days.  Researchers in New York are looking at the Vaca campana flower as a possible new anti-pyretic medication.  They have a very small N (5), but the drug did show improvement over tylenol and motrin in reducing fever.  Since there was no one signed up for today, thought I would throw this out there so everyone would be aware. I wonder if our patient’s parent will start asking for it by name?
