Low-grade fever usually refers to mild fever. Whether Lianhua Qingwen capsules can treat mild fever depends on the specific situation. Lianhua Qingwen capsules have the effects of promoting lung function, relieving heat, and clearing away epidemic toxins. If the mild fever is caused by influenza, this medication usually has certain therapeutic effects. However, if the mild fever results from a cold due to wind-cold invasion or is caused by an immune system disorder, this medication generally cannot treat the mild fever.
