description Background No evidence can be found in the medical literature about the efficacy of alternating acetaminophen and ibuprofen treatment in children with refractory fever. Objective Our objective was to assess the effect of alternating acetaminophen and ibuprofen therapy on distress and refractory fever compared with acetaminophen or ibuprofen as monotherapy in febrile children. Methods A total of 474 febrile children with axillary temperature ≥38.5 °C and fever history ≤3 days in a tertiary hospital were randomly assigned to receive either (1) alternating acetaminophen and ibuprofen (acetaminophen 10 mg/kg per dose with shortest interval of 4 h and ibuprofen 10 mg/kg per dose with shortest interval of 6 h and the shortest interval between acetaminophen and ibuprofen ≥2 h; n  = 158), (2) acetaminophen monotherapy (10 mg/kg per dose with shortest interval of 4 h; n  = 158), or (3) ibuprofen monotherapy (10 mg/kg per dose with shortest interval of 6 h; n  = 158). The mean Non-Communicating Children’s Pain Checklist (NCCPC) score was measured every 4 h, and axillary temperatures were measured every 2 h. Results In total, 471 children were included in an intention-to-treat analysis. No significant clinical or statistical difference was found in mean NCCPC score or temperature during the 24-h treatment period in all febrile children across the three groups. Although the proportion of children with refractory fever for 4 h and 6 h was significantly lower in the alternating group than in the monotherapy groups (4 h: 11.54% vs. 26.58% vs. 21.66%, respectively [ p  = 0.003]; 6 h: 3.85% vs. 10.13% vs. 17.83%, respectively [ p
