Demam merupakan suatu reaksi fisiologis yang menandakan gejala penyakit yang sering dikeluhkan orangtua atas kondisi anaknya. Peningkatan suhu anak seringkali menyebabkan rasa gelisah tidak tenang pada orang tua sehingga memicu orang tua untuk memberikan antipiretik yang tidak sesuai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara faktor sosiodemografi dengan tingkat pengetahuan, sikap dan perilaku ibu tentang pemberian antipiretik pada anak. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian cross-sectional yang menggunakan data primer berupa pengisian kuesioner dan data sekunder dari penelitian utama berjudul “Longitudinal study on the effect of multiple micro-nutrient supplementation on haemoglobin level of 8 to 22 month old Indonesian children”.
