Baby liked the sugar free, colour free version better than the other one that is pink in colour. The syringe provided is good although one we had let air in so you could never draw the full dose and as the bottle is designed for the syringe was difficult with holding a baby to get it onto a spoon or other measuring device when needed. Sometimes the design also means it leaks when drawing into the syringe and it is really sticky stuff!

A necessity with children. Excellent for teething, fever and any other pains. Kids love the taste. Sugar and colour free available. Some now come with a syringe for when kids are small but spoon easier when older.

Well liked by my daughter because its sweet and fruit flavoured ! Effective at reducing temperature and pain. Its a shame its so sugary and, to me, sickly and I've read an article suggesting a possible link with frequent use and asthma. I'm not sure how true this is but it certainly makes me cautious about frequent use.
