I used this when my little one had her vaccinations and it was so reassuring to use a well known brand that worked. I also use this when she's got a cold or fever and she seems to feel better around an hour after use. Downsides are it does cause drowsiness and is quite sticky but she enjoys the taste

We used this when our babies had their injections to keep the temperatures down and we have also used this when they have been teething badly which has helped, particularly at night time.

Trusted brand - used when my daughter had her vaccinations and seemed to help bring down her temperature. Would use again.

Generally only need one dose to settle the little one when teething, has always worked well. Syringe can be tricky to administer the medicine though, which is very sticky if spilt.
