Hello

Tylenol and Motrin can be used, as they both do not affect blood sugar and do not affect insulin. It is likely that your son has a virus. If he has vomiting, you can check urine for ketones. Usually when children are sick, their blood sugars tend to rise, as the body produces more sugar to fight the infection. Adding about 20% extra to his usual insulin dose will help bring the sugars down. Hope he feels better.
