Antipyretic. An antipyretic ( / ˌæntipaɪˈrɛtɪk /, from anti- 'against' and pyretic 'feverish') is a substance that reduces fever. [ 1] Antipyretics cause the hypothalamus to override a prostaglandin -induced increase in temperature. [citation needed] The body then works to lower the temperature, which results in a reduction in fever.
Vaccine vial monitor. A vaccine vial monitor ( VVM) is a thermochromic label put on vials containing vaccines which gives a visual indication of whether the vaccine has been kept at a temperature which preserves its potency.
