Antihistamines are primarily used to treat allergic reactions and symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itching, but they are not effective for reducing fever. Fever is typically treated with antipyretics, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, which specifically target the body's temperature regulation. While antihistamines may help alleviate some discomfort associated with Allergies or colds, they do not address the underlying cause of fever.
