Calpol Infant Sugar Free 60ml
Calpol Infant Sugar Free is a 120 mg/5 ml paracetamol oral suspension for babies and children aged 2 months to 6 years. The paracetamol in it is used to relieve pain such as tooth pain, headache, sore throat and the aches and pains that come with colds and flu, and it also brings down fever (high temperature).
This 60 ml bottle contains a pink, strawberry flavoured suspension with no added sugar, and a 5 ml oral syringe is supplied so each dose can be measured accurately. Shake the bottle well and follow the dose in the leaflet table for your child's age. Do not give it to babies under 2 months, to a child weighing less than 4 kg, or with any other medicine containing paracetamol. For babies aged 2 to 3 months, read the leaflet carefully and speak to your pharmacist or doctor. Talk to a doctor if your child does not feel better or feels worse after 3 days, or if the illness comes with a rash, breathing difficulties or unusual tiredness. Our pharmacists at Leahy's Pharmacy are happy to advise if you are unsure whether this product is right for you.
Always read the label and the patient information leaflet before use.
