It is spelled with the prefix "febr-" which refers to fever and the suffix "-icant" which means causing or producing. The IPA phonetic transcription for "febricant" is /ˈfɛbrɪkənt/. While this word is not commonly used in everyday language, it is important for medical professionals to be familiar with, particularly in the context of understanding how certain substances may affect the body's temperature.
