Ideal for trying to get your little one to take medicine. Taste like strawberry, comes in a sugar free option and you can't taste anything medicinal.

I use this first if my daughter is feeling unwell, before trying an ibuprofen product, however it's not quite as effective. It does however still taste as delicious as I remember from my own childhood!

Always seems to help when baby is a bit under the weather! available everywhere even in local corner shops so never have to be without. Baby likes the taste of it which helps as no one really likes taking medicine. I usually stock up when its on offer in the Aldi baby sales

The nurse recommends giving your infant Calpol when they have their immunisations as the Meningitis immunisation gives the baby a temperature so the nurse provides you with a schedule of when you need to give it to the baby. My baby never developed a temperature so I believe the Calpol did prevent this. She also liked the taste of it so never spat it out.
