You just have to take the case as an ACUTE case, as you would do any other acute case. That is, you ask the patient what their symptoms are, when they started, how quickly they started and what makes any of these symptoms better or worse. You also need to ensure that you get complete symptoms too. Also, look out for any strange, rare and peculiar symptoms that could lead you to the remedy and any changes from the normal state. So if they said that they were normally quite hot blooded, but felt chilly now they are unwell with a fever, you would take this into account in the case. Also, if they said that they were thirstless with fever, as this is quite unusual to be thirstless with a fever.

You also need to be able to separate out the chronic picture from the acute picture too. So, just take the case as you would do with any acute case and give the remedy that then best matches that symptom picture.

Basically, any homeopathic remedy can be used to treat fever if it fits the patient's case/symptoms.
