I have used calpol after first and second vaccinations of my baby, as adviced by doctor. It did the job. I also used it when they were sick with fever and once when they were teething. It relieved my baby very quickly all of the times. The only problem is that it gives them gas.

make sure you get the sugar free version just in case. My baby got quite hyperactive on the sugar version. The syringe is easy to use too.

I use this when my little one was teething...had a temperature and even when she had a cold. It worked every time. The syringe inside really helped when administering the medicine and the flavour was pleasant enough for her to open her mouth for more.

Smells disgusting, my baby can guess he is about to get medicine. I was never successful to give him calpol even if he had some he vomit that out immediately. Strawberry flavour is worst. It would be great if calpol can will be available without any smell.
